greetings, im just learning javascript, and have a question.

 

script type="text/javascript">

var name=prompt("add this");

var name2=prompt("and add this");

alert(name+name2);

 

 

</script>

 

I have that script, and its concatenating the results together so 1+1=11 at the moment. I want it to equal 2, so 1+1=2 or 5+2=9. How would I do that? thank you.

var name=prompt("add this");
var name2=prompt("and add this");
alert(parseFloat(name)+parseFloat(name2));
</script>
