my code works but it says I'm wrong

My code works for this JavaScript quiz but it still says Task 1 isn't passing

app.js 
var answer = prompt ("What is the best programming language?");
if (answer.toUpperCase () === "JAVASCRIPT" ) {
  alert ("You are correct!");
}
index.html 
<!DOCTYPE HTML>

you dont need .Uppercase() and the === will be to "JavaScript"

full answer: var answer = prompt("What is the best programming language") if (answer === "JavaScript") { alert("You are correct") } else { alert("JavaScript is the best language!") }
