inputbox problem

[blackout188]

When the answer inputed from the text box matches with the answer in array then it will trace correct, but even after I entered the correct answer it will still tell me I'm wrong. Can someone help me with this please

var possible:Array=new Array()
var questionran:int
var plusran:int
var checker:int
questionran=Math.random()*12+1
if(questionran==1){
plusran=Math.random()*6+1
questionran=questionran+plusran
}
trace(questionran)
possible[12]=1
possible[11]=2
possible[10]=3
possible[9]=4
possible[8]=5
possible[7]=6
possible[6]=5
possible[5]=4
possible[4]=3
possible[3]=2
possible[2]=1

questionone.text="Suppose two dice are rolled and you want the sum of the two dice to be "+" "+String(questionran)+" "+
"How many ways can this occur?"
check1_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,check ing)
function checking(e:MouseEvent){
switch(e.currentTarget){
case check1_btn :
checker=possible[questionran]
trace(checker)
if(input1.text==String(checker)){
trace("correct")
}
else{
trace("wrong")
trace(input1.text)
}
}
}

Be sure that your input text does not include a newline from pressing return.

Worked fine for me. Here is the exact code that I used:

var possible:Array=new Array();
var questionran:int;
var plusran:int;
var checker:int;
questionran=Math.random()*12+1;
if(questionran==1){
    plusran=Math.random()*6+1;
    questionran+=plusran;
}
trace(questionran);
possible[12]=1;
possible[11]=2;
possible[10]=3;
possible[9]=4;
possible[8]=5;
possible[7]=6;
possible[6]=5;
possible[5]=4;
possible[4]=3;
possible[3]=2;
possible[2]=1;

questionone.text="Suppose two dice are rolled and you want the sum of the two dice to be "+" "+String(questionran)+" "+
"How many ways can this occur?"
check1_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,checking)
function checking(e:MouseEvent){
    switch(e.currentTarget){
        case check1_btn :
        checker=possible[questionran]
        trace(checker)
        if(input1.text==String(checker)){
            trace("correct")
        }else{
            trace("wrong")
            trace(input1.text)
        }
    }
}

solved it was multi line behavior
