If statement based on user input

Question

Trying to run a if statement based off a user input, would this be the correct way? So if the user is on a subscription then isSubscription is true.

var subscription = window.alert("Is this a subscription? (Y/N)"); 
    if (subscription == "Y") {
        isSubscription = true;
      } else {
        isSubscription = false;
        window.alert("No activation key");
      }

Try to use window.confirm. It has built in yes/no feature, where value returned are true for yes/ok and false for no/cancel.

So your code would look like

isSubscription = window.confirm("Is this a subscription?")

Try like this way,

var subscription = window.confirm("Is this a subscription? (Y/N)"); 

    if (subscription == true) {
        window.alert("activation key available");
        isSubscription = true;
      } else {
        isSubscription = false;
        window.alert("No activation key");
      }
