Multiple syntax errors aler != alert you also deleted the closing ) and the opening } of the function. And you only passed in one variable without a concret calue for the max function to compare. :) And dont forget thet semicolon ";"

function max(h1,h2){
  if(h1 > h2){
    return h1; 
  }else{
    return  h2;
  }
}              
alert(max(2,3));

No no you can compare every numbers you want there and the function will compare them both thats why you have the h1 and h2 parameter for your function
