title: Canvas game not updating score?
body: <p>Hello I have made a snake game and all it good except I want to update a textfield if the score is higher than the previous score when they die, eventually I will make a top 10 list etc.</p>
  
  <p>the code I have is: </p>
  
  <pre><code>score2 = document.getElementsByName('updateScore').value;
  if(score &gt; score2)
  {
  document.getElementById('updateScore').innerHTML = score;
   }
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>This gets called in the init method before the score is reset for the net game when they die</p>
