The problem is that your code (the <script> stuff you're passing) breaks the JS parser.
You will need to edit the MM_setTextOfLayer function in your JavaScript.

what do you mean by editing it. do I need to change the MM_setTextOfLayer and use something else?

[DrDoc]

Somewhere on your page you have a MM_setTextOfLayer function. E.g.:

<script type="text/javascript">
...
function MM_setTextOfLayer() {
...
}
...
</script>

What's inside the MM_setTextOfLayer function may need to be edited.

This is what the function is do you know what may be wrong with it?

function MM_setTextOfLayer(objName,x,newText) { //v4.01
if ((obj=MM_findObj(objName))!=null) with (obj)
if (document.layers) {document.write(unescape(newText)); document.close();}
else innerHTML = unescape(newText);
