NONE of this works. Maybe I'm having a browser issue (im using chrome)? 

var visitor = prompt('what is your name');
var message = 'hello' + visitor;
Document.write(message);

I think this module is broken. I typed into the HTML file:

  <h1>Using the YOYOYO prompt() method</h1>

and the "YOYOYO" does not show up in the browser preview.
