During load of an html document I use the following js
function writeToWindow () {
w.document.open();
w.document.write('<HTML><HEAD><\/HEAD><BODY><H1>Kibology<\/H1><\/BODY><\/HTML>')
;
w.document.close();
}
var w = window.open ('about:blank', 'w1');
writeToWindow();
The new window opens with about:blank but the new content doesn't appear. A
subsequent document.write attempt triggered from
<BUTTON ONCLICK="writeToWindow()">
write to opened window
</BUTTON>
shows up

Adding {doc.open} to summary to track related bugs. Marking M15 for now - we
should try to get this one done earlier rather than later.
Summary: document.write to opened window during load not done/without effect → {doc.open}document.write to opened window during load not done/without effect
Target Milestone: M15

works for me on win98 M14, the new window opens blank, and when you click the
button Kibology is written to the window.

In the test case the word "Kibology" should appear both when you load the
document and when you click the button. The new window that opens should never
appear blank (except for a fraction of a second after it is created and before
"Kibology" is written to it).
What rufus@nonstuff.de observed is actually the buggy behavior rather than a
"works for me": the new window opened blank, and "Kibology" did not appear until
he clicked on the button.

sorry, totally misread the script :o but I looked into it some more and this is
very strange. usually (not always) if you switch to the new window imediatly as
it's opened you'll see "Kibology" shown there while the page is still loading,
but once the throbber stops, it disapears. The same thing happens if you change
the call from the <script> block to <body onLoad>. It seems to be that for some
reason the opened window gets redrawn or something and the text is wipped.

Nominating nsbeta2. We have to start drawing a line on DOM0 backward
compatibility; these bugs are supposed to be a high priority for nsbeta2 per the
beta2 criteria.

Setting to [nsbeta2+]. document.write() is one of the most widely-used
JavaScript commands of all. Even across windows, you see it a fair amount.
