What are you wondering about?

There's an error on the last line, though:
document.write('Your password is' + forename.length -1 + '<BR>)

should be
document.write('Your password is' + forename.length -1 + '<BR>')

Okay, first you need to set your variables equal to what is returned from the prompt, like this:
javascript
var forename = window.prompt('Please enter your forename', '');
var surname = window.prompt('Please enter your surname', '');

Then you can use the substring method to get the last character:
javascript
var lastLetter = forename.substring(forename.length-1);


I hope that helped.
