The problem is that you can't really use document.write once the
document is closed. Many people discourage its use entirely.
If you have a certain place you want the output to appear, perhaps in
this tag:
<p id="outputArea"></p>
Then you can do this:
$(document).ready(function() {
$("#XXX").click(function(event) {
$("#outputArea").text("TESTOUTPUT");
});
});
If you don't already have a place in mind, and you just want to append
it to the body, you can do this instead:
$("<p>TESTOUTPUT</p>).appendTo("body");
