<input type=button value="Calculate My Score!"</input>

What the plan is, is that if their score is 26-32 then they have a certain
personality, if their score is 20-25 then it's another, if it is 14-19 it's
another and if it is 8-13 then it's another. So how to I get an alert to pop up
with their score and the personality description for that particular score? If
it is too much to explain I totally understand, but I just thought I would see
if I could get a little bit of help. Oh ya, since each of my text boxes has a
different name is that what I would put in place of answer 1, 2, etc in your
code below?
> alert(document.getElementById('answer1').value +
> document.getElementById('answer2').value +
> document.getElementById('answer3').value +
> document.getElementById('answer4').value);
Thank you so much for your response I really appreciate it. I am so bad at this
stuff and just can't seem to figure it out.
