Cases don't work, anybody -- help?

<SCRIPT LANGUAGE=JavaScript>

var secretNumber = prompt("Picke a nubmer between 1 and 5", "");
secretNumber - parseInt(secretNumber);

switch (secretNumber)
{
case 1:
   document.write("Too low!");
   break;

case 2:
   document.write("Too low!");
   break;

case 3:
   document.write("You guessed the secret number!");
   break;

case 4:
   document.write("Too high!");
   break;

case 5:
   document.write("Too high!");
   break;

default:
   document.write("You did not enter a number between 1 and 5.");
   break;
}
document.write("<BR>Execution continues here. ");

</SCRIPT>

I think the switch *does* work, but that secretNumber never gets a number that is in the switch range. You are subtracting parseInt(secretNumber) instead of assigning it. Change it to: HtH,

Everyone is unique, except for me.

I knew it would be something stupid - I looked for an hour and couldn't find it... thank you very much.

Why does the secretNumber equals to 3?
Why not 4 or 1.
