    Default Java code help

    I need to write a script that finds the smallest of several non-negative intergers while using a sentinel-controlled lopp (-1 to exit window prompt).

    I know something's clearly wrong since the window prompt never disappears. Been trying for hours and I really don't feel like starting over. Any advice or help would be amazing since this is due very soon.

    Thanks a lot

    Javascript != java, and these are java forums. I have moved your post to the other programming languages forum.

    Java != Javascript. I'm going to move this to the "Other Programming Languages" board.

    Also, you might consider using a more informative title. "Java code help" doesn't really tell anybody what you need help with- so how will the people who might be able to help you know they might be able to help you?

    Edit- Bahaha, great minds think alike?

    Sorry, very new to Java and these forums as well. Pulling my hair out right now, no idea where I'm going wrong.

    Thanks.

    What happens when you run the script? What part of it is not working?

    This code is actually prompting. Though some errors in it but it's prompting and also, how are you calling this in your web page source?
