I think im forgetting to break out of the loop?

var secret; var correctGuess = false

do { secret = prompt('Guess the secret password!'); if (secret.toUpperCase === "SESAME") correctGuess = true } while ( ! correctGuess ) document.write("You know the secret password. Welcome.");

script.js 
var secret;
var correctGuess = false

do {
  secret = prompt('Guess the secret password!');
  if (secret.toUpperCase === "SESAME")
    correctGuess = true
}
while ( ! correctGuess )
document.write("You know the secret password. Welcome.");

Because toUpperCase is a function just be sure that you add () to it, toUpperCase().
