Why can't you use .toUpperCase at the end of a prompt?

Hi I'm trying to structure my questions like this. Although I know it's probably better to create a separate question 1 variable instead of trying to do everything inside the if statement.

How come you can't do this?

if ( prompt("What is the capital of New Zealand").toUpperCase === "WELLINGTON" ) { correctAnswers += 1; }

Cheers, Hugo.

I'm an idiot. I was missing my parentheses off the end of the method.
