Switch case not working - cant find value

Here is my question:

I'm trying to get a question form in html5 / javascript with using 2 switch cases to show different questions and answers on the field. I'm using var box for the questions and var answers for the answers (with innerHTML).

Anyways, when I am in init() for the first time, it should check for answers.value from the innerHTML post, it can't find the answers.value when i use it, I would love some help on this. 

<script type="text/javascript">
            window.addEventListener('load', function() {

                    var box = document.getElementById('vragen');
                    var answers = document.getElementById('antwoorden');

                    box.innerHTML = 'Kun je je print pas met contant geld opwaarderen?';
                    answers.innerHTML = '<input type="button" value="Antwoord 1" onclick="init()"><br><input type="button" value="Antwoord 2" onclick="init()"><br><input type="button" value="Antwoord 3" onclick="init()"><br><input type="button" value="Antwoord 4" onclick="init()">'; //onclick function

                    var foutenCounter;
                    var antwoord = '';
            });

            function init() {

            switch(answers.value) {
                case 'Antwoord 1': 
                alert("test");
                antwoord = 'a';
                    switch(antwoord) {
                        case 'a':
                            alert('goed');
                        break;

                        case 'b':
                            //fout example.
                            alert('fout');
                        break;

                        case 'c':

                        break;

                        case 'd':

                        break;
                    }
                break;

answers wont be defined in your init function. You should define var answers globally then you should be able to both set it on load and use it in init.
