It's work with that, sorry for the post,I forgot to add counter = counter + 1

var count = 1; while (count <= 26){ document.write('Something'); count = count + 1; }

Without the line that increments "counter", the code would be an "infinite loop" which explains the error message about taking too long.

But with that line added, I would expect it to work properly.

Do you still have any problem?

No, it works perfectly. Thank you!
