I came up with a solution, but it isn't accepted. I've tested it in the console and it works. What did I do incorrectly?

I'm sure it isn't pretty, but the solution is viable in my console. Please help!

script.js 
var secret;
var guess = false;
var correctGuess = "Sesame";
do {
  secret = prompt("What is the secret password?"); 
  if (secret === correctGuess) {
    guess = true;
  }
} while (! guess)
document.write("You know the secret password. Welcome.");

"Sesame" should be all lowercase
