javascript - Puzzling behavior from IF ( ) statement -


i'm total n00b javascript , expect appallingly obvious cannot understand why if ( ) statement not producing correct results.

no matter how many characters input function returns 'yes' console whether 'word' < or > 2. if (ha!) can shed light on it's appreciated. code below:

var word = document.getelementbyid('wordchoice').value;    function flipchk () {  if (word.length < 2) {     console.log('yes');  } else {      console.log('no'); } }

see implemented code here: http://supsean.com/supsean/flipr/flipr.html

have tried debugging code , seeing value of word when click button?

i'm guessing part of problem you're assigning value word when page loads not reading again when user clicks button.
