Can't load multiple document.write scripts

Question

I'm trying to load a multiple document.write scripts into a single document. Like this:

:DocWrite.js

document.write('<a href="#"><img src='myimage.gif'/></a>');

MyHTML.html

$('.myclass').each( function( index, element ){
    var script = unescape('%3Cscript src="'+DocWrite.js+'" type="text/javascript"%3E%3C/script%3E');
    $(element).html( script );

});
<div class="myclass">document.write loads image here</div>
<div class="myclass">stops here and hangs</div>
<div class="myclass">same</div>

The first div loads the script and the image is written inside but it stops after that. I would just change DocWrite.js but I don't have access to it. Any ideas how I can fix this? Thanks in advance.

Try using document.body.innerHTML+="content to add" instead of document.write() — JCOC611

Oh, then the only possibility I see is overwriting the document.write function, but I'm truly not sure if I should be recommending this as I have no idea if it would work or what the downsides are. — JCOC611

I think you're missing some quotes around DocWrite.js, try this instead:

$('.myclass').each( function( index, element ){
    var script = unescape('%3Cscript src="' + 'DocWrite.js' + '"type="text/javascript"%3E%3C/script%3E');
    $(element).html( script );
});

I just added single quotes around "DocWrite.js". Without the quotes, the JavaScript interpreter will think that DocWrite is an object and that you're trying to access the js property on that object.
