I'm sure my code is correct

This should produce the prompt and then say 'you are correct' if the answer is 'Javascript'. It runs in the browser correctly, but won't pass the quiz.

app.js 
var answer = prompt('What is the best programming language?');
if ( answer === 'Javascript' ) {
  alert("You are correct");
}
