alert(document.getElementById('answer1').value +
document.getElementById('answer2').value +
document.getElementById('answer3').value +
document.getElementById('answer4').value);
this makes a couple of assumptions :)
one assumption is that the form fields have an ID attribute each. if
they don't, you can reference them via
document.formname.fieldname.value
the other assumption is that all of the values are actually numeric.
there's a few ways to handle that... but let's see how far this gets
you first.
