1,441 PointsMy code is not prompting the questions when I run it?
Here is my code because I did not know how to link the WorkSpace Snapshot:
/*
1. Store correct answers
- When quiz begins, no answers are correct
*/
let correctAnswers = 0;
// 2. Store the rank of a player
let rank;
// 3. Select the <main> HTML element
const main = document.querySelector('main');
/*
4. Ask at least 5 questions
- Store each answer in a variable
- Keep track of the number of correct answers
*/
const answer1 = prompt("What country has the Taj Mahal?");
if(answer1.toUpperCase() === 'INDIA'){
correctAnswers += 1;
}
const answer2 = prompt("What country has the Angel Falls");
if(answer2.toUpperCase() === 'VENEZUELA'){
correctAnswers += 1;
}
const answer3 = prompt("What country has the Mount Fuji?");
if(answer3.toUpperCase() === 'JAPAN'){
correctAnswers += 1;
}
const answer4 = prompt("What country has El Yunque?");
if(answer4.toUpperCase() === 'PUERTO RICO'){
correctAnswers += 1;
}
const answer5 = prompt("What country has the Eiffel Tower?");
if(answer5.toUpperCase() === 'FRANCE'){
correctAnswers += 1;
}
/*
5. Rank player based on number of correct answers
- 5 correct = Gold
- 3-4 correct = Silver
- 1-2 correct = Bronze
- 0 correct = No crown
*/
if(correctAnswers === 5){
rank = 'Gold';
}
else if(correctAnswers >=3){
rank = "Silver";
}
else if(correctAnswers >= 1{
rank = "Bronze";
}
else{
rank = "No Crown" ;
}
// 6. Output results to the <main> element
main.innerHTML = `
<h2>You got ${correctAnswers} out of 5 questions correct.</h2>
<p>Crown earned: <strong>${rank}</strong></p> `;

Take a look at your else if
statement for the bronze rank. You're missing the closing parenthesis on the conditional. Past that, everything is looking good!
You could catch this error pretty quickly by taking a look at the console when you view your page. It will show a syntax error with the name of the file followed by a colon and the line that the error is coming from.

Full Stack JavaScript Techdegree Graduate 34,662 PointsHey Erick,
I added formatting to your code for you, but I can’t see why the prompts wouldn’t show to the user when run.
You’re running your code in a browser environment, right (and not Node)?
