how do I put some text between the a href taggs?

Question

I'm new to javascript I've created this code and it almost works. The href works but how do I put the fixed phonenumber between the a href taggs?

document.write does not work.

Any ideas?

<!DOCTYPE HTML>
<html>
<head>
    <title>test</title>
</head>
<body>
    <script type="text/javascript">
        function fix(nummer) {
            var nieuw = nummer.replace(/\D/g,'');
            var output = document.getElementById("nummer");
            var href = 'http://10.0.1.151/?call=' + nieuw;
            output.setAttribute("href", href);
            output.document.write(nieuw);
        }
    </script>
    <label>Typ telefoonummer</label><input id="telefoon" style="margin-left: 30px" type="text" onblur="fix(this.value)" />
    <span><a target="_blank" id="nummer">Call [how do I get the fixed number here??]</a></span>
</body>
</html>

Set the innerText property of the element.

output.innerText = "Call "+nummer;

Use element.textContent:

document.getElementById('nummer').textContent = "Call " + nummer;

innerText is an IE thing.

You are right! innerText didn't work on Chrome. textContent works perfectly now – Ralph Schipper Apr 25 '14 at 20:56
innerHTML should work on all browsers, which is why I suggested it – DerStrom8 Apr 25 '14 at 21:59

var phoneNum = document.getElementById('number');
phoneNum.innerHTML=("Call " + phoneNumberToCall); //Could also use phoneNum.innerText

innerHTML is not a function. – bjb568 Apr 25 '14 at 20:25
@bjb568, just a typo. There was supposed to be an "=" in there. Are you the one who keeps trolling my posts? – DerStrom8 Apr 25 '14 at 21:58
