I have a few remarks here ..
firstly, you're mistaking javascript for java, which is a completely other language.
secondly, you're trying to write standard html within script tags, which won't work for obvious reasons, since it isn't javascript code.

you also never declare the variables which you are using.

<html><head><title>grade</title>
<script type="text/javascript">
 //write all your javaSCRIPT code here
 // do remember, this is not java though
</script>
</head>
      <body>
<!--
  write the contents of your html page here
  if you want to write additional javascript here, that is not triggered by, for instance, clicking on a button, you'll need to repeat the javascript tags
-->    
</body></html>

this should get you started, but this might be a thread to start within the web-development forum :)
