Just a couple small mistakes; the name of the variable holding the HTML badges is misspelled in the concatenation, and the method to parse to integer should be parseInt(), here is the code:

var HTMLBadges = prompt('How many HTML badges do you have?'); 

var CSSBadges = prompt('How man CSS badges so you have?'); 

var totalBadges = parseInt(HTMLBadges) + parseInt(CSSBadges); 

alert('Wow! You have ' + totalBadges + ' badges!');

Cheers.
