    Hi,

    I dont know where to start with this really. I need an if statement which checks if the user is on the homepage. If they are then it shows some text and if not it doesn't.

    Any ideas?

    Cheers,
    Adam

if (document.location=='http://www.mywebsite.com/') {
   document.write('You are on the homepage');
}
    Code (markup):
