Then, in a script, you can do this:

SCRIPT type="text/javascript"
function displayError(errorMessage) {
document.getElementById("errorMessageText").innerT ext = errorMessage;
}
/SCRIPT

If you want more formatting than plain text, use innerHTML instead of
innerText

However, it is important to note that innerText isn't supported by the
Mozilla family of browsers (amongst others, no doubt). innerHTML is better
supported.
