Below is what am trying achieve, when a user login, on the successful page, it alerts eg welcome user, how will i print the welcome user on the body of the html as opposed to alerting it on the head

<!DOCTYPE HTML>
<html>
<head>

<script>
//sessionStorage.setItem('uname'); // defining the localStorage variable
alert("welcome: " + localStorage.getItem('uname')); // accessing it
confirm("welcome " + localStorage.uname); // another way of accessing the variable

</script>

</head>

<body>

welcome: " + localStorage.getItem('uname');

</body>

any help
</html>
