HTML5 Javascript SWITCH not running in head or body -


i have simple code written in js , embedded in html5 document. cannot thing run no matter place script part (head or body). have enabled content in browsers none of them runs script.

any ideas issue be?

<!doctype html> <html>    <title>tryme</title>    <head>    </head>    <body>       <script>         var instr = prompt("which instrument play?");         switch(instr) {             case "violin":             case "piano":                 alert("me too!");                 break;             case "drums":             case "ukulele":                 alert("sonds good");                 break;             case "whistle":                 alert("omg!!!");                 break;             default:                     alert("whatever...");         }       </script>       <noscript>"your browser doesnt support javascript"</noscript>    </body> </html> 

your semi-colon looking characters (;) showing unicode:

u+037e : greek question mark

rather correct semi-colons (;):

u+003b : semicolon

with "wrong semi-colon", see error in browser developer console (usually press f12 open):

uncaught syntaxerror: unexpected token illegal

javascript supports unicode directly in source files, have careful characters used in source.
