JavaScript JavaScript Basics (Retired) Making Decisions with Conditional Statements Introducing Conditional Statements

I am continually receiving a message saying that Task One no longer passes, when I am passing Task Three

After going through the process of successfully completing Task One and Task Two, I know that my answer for Task 3 is correct, yet the dialogue box keeps telling me "Task One can no longer pass". How can this be?

app.js 
var answer = prompt('What is the best programming language?');
if (answer ==='JavaScript') {
    alert("You are correct")
}
else {
  alret("JavaScript is the best language!")
}

Try alert instead of alret.

Good luck! ~Alex
