Well, your script does neither read anything from the HTML element nor return/write the result to anything.

First, the script must read in the value of those 3 number. You have only 1 input field (name="num") which would not be enough with your current implementation. Next for simplisity, you should have 3 input fields with different id/name for now. Then look up "getElementById()" function or "$" symbol because this is the way you read in the data from the current HTML page you are working on. Then inside your if-else statements would be to print out the result by placing it inside your input field (name "res"). That's all...
