Hi everyone. I am trying to set up a loan approval form. I am looking to have the js file separate from the html. Here is what I have. I think I am not connecting something but am frustrated. Any help would be appreciated.

function loanApp(income, credit, education){
if(income >= 0 || income <= 40000){
return 1;
} else {
if(income >=40001 || income <= 80000){
return 3;
} else {
return 5;
}}
if(credit >= 300 || credit <= 500){
return 1;
}else if(credit >= 501 || credit <=650){
return 3;
}else {
return 5;
}}
switch (education) {
case “High School”:
result = 1;
break;
case “Associate’s Degree”:
result = 2;
break;
case “Bachelor’s Degree”:
result = 3;
break;
case “Postgraduate Degree”:
result = 5;
default:
result = “That was not a valid selection.”;
}
function result(answer){
var answer = income + credit + education;
if (totalScore >= 3 || totalScore <= 7) {
document.getElementById(output).(“I’m sorry but your loan has been declined.”);
}
else
if (totalScore >= 8 || totalScore <= 10) {
document.getElementById(output).(“The loan is approved at 8.5% interest rate.”);
}
else {
document.getElementById(output).(“Your approved at a 7% interest rate.”);
return answer;
}
}
I want to call my function with the document.getElementById.
