Here's a few hints:

  • items in object literals are separated by commas (not semicolons)
  • there should be no colon between "prompt" and the parentheses
  • use a different kind of quotes when quoting a string that contains quotes
  • a variable can't be incremented until it has been assigned a value

yes, this helps a alot. thanks! all those errors u pointed out are so obvious. i feel like i am not coding enough i guess. coding is so hard that fact that one syntax can break the entire block of code.
