44,807 PointsFor each of your answer comparisons, you have the form
if ( answer1.toUpperCase() === 'blue')
If the value for answer1 is 'blue'
, then answer1.toUpperCase()
will become 'BLUE'
, which is not equal to 'blue'
.
If the value for answer1 is 'BLUE'
, then answer1.toUpperCase()
will become 'BLUE'
, which is not equal to 'blue'
.
You could try adjusting your first comparison to compare against 'BLUE'
or, if you don't want to retype them, 'blue'.toUpperCase()
.
