Your code is right, but you set bgcolor='sky' on the body element tag, wich is not valid, and so parsed as 0 (black), the same color as default for text, so you document.write black on black ^^ (try a <ctrl>+A to select all the text in the document, you will see the outputed text as it will be highligthed ;)) You could easily fix that by setting a valid color for the attribute (not a name, but a hexadecimal color value, even if the 'bgcolor' attribute is deprecated in html5 and should be replaced by css style declaration -- using 'background-color' property, wich accept html named colors) @Limitless: qry is set with the return value of confirm(), so true or false, and the test 'if (qry)' is as much valid as 'if (qry==true)' ;)
