Ok, I want to make a script like this:

echo Welcome to the test

What URL to go to?
start %answer%

how do I do it now? it sdont work!

Try this (the only time I use caps a lot is with Batch files):

Code:

@ECHO OFF
COLOR 1C
ECHO Welcome to the test
ECHO What URL do you want to go to?
SET /P ANSWER
START %ANSWER%
PAUSE

This doesn't seem to work. It says the syntax is WRONG

Oops! I forgot an equals sign. Try the code now.

thanks! Now, how can i make it sense if person says y or n

Here is something nice: rem denotes a comment.

There are two ways.
1. One command only
2. Multiple commands

ECHO Blah blah blah? [Y/N]
SET /P VarName=
IF %VarName% == Y rem Command here
IF %VarName% == N rem Command here

ECHO Blah blah blah? [Y/N]
SET /P VarName=
IF %VarName% == Y GOTO YEAH
IF %VarName% == N GOTO NOPE

:YEAH
rem Commands here

:NOPE
rem Commands here

SET /P VarName=
IF %VarName% == Y ::Command here

Code:

ECHO Blah blah blah? [Y/N]
SET /P VarName=
IF %VarName% == Y GOTO YEAH
IF %VarName% == N GOTO NOPE

:YEAH

WOW! YOU ARE THE BEST SCRATCHER EVER! THANKYOU THANKYOU THANKYOU!

You're welcome.
Also, I screwed up. rem denotes comments, :: is glitchier.

 rem Command 2
 rem Etc...
)
IF %VarName% == N (
 rem Command 1
 rem Command 2
