Add verification to prompt box

pilotdude647 · 10-23-2012, 10:57 AM

Hi,

I am making an very basic interactive webpage.
I have created a prompt box and wish to add a verification to this with an alert attached so that if the enter the right word a popup appears saying so and also if they don't but it won't work.
I get the prompt to enter the text but no alert.

Can anyone help me thank you.

HTML:

Code:

<a onclick="yellow3()">Click here bro</a>

Javascript:

Code:

function yellow3()
{
	var name=prompt("Please enter the colour yellow", "Colour");
	if(name==yellow || name==Yellow || name==YELLOW)
	{
		alert("You have correctly entered yellow");
	}
	else
	{
		alert("You have incorrectly entered yellow");
	}
}

The literal must be in quotes:-

Code:

if(name.toLowerCase()=="yellow") {  // "yellow", "Yellow", YeLLow" etc.
