My solution to The Variable Challenge

var adjective = prompt("Please type an adjective");
var verb = prompt("Please type a verb");
var noun = prompt("Please type a noun");
document.write("There once was a ") + adjective + verb + (" who wanted to change ") + noun;
alert("You're done!");

Please comment and critique.

Thanks.

Hey

Ran you code through JS console and the document.write only put "There once was a " to the screen.

Try moving the () around a little ; maybe something like this:

document.write("There once was a " + adjective + verb + " who wanted to change " + noun);
