Hi,

Apparently this is a common issue with workspaces. I have been experiencing identical bugs when I try to execute unedited copies of educator code.

If you are using Chrome, try opening the files in incognito tabs. This has some effect on caching that allows my code to execute.

Also, for the sake of your sanity, load your code directly into a browser. You'll see quickly that it is actually a workspaces bug and that you do know how to use selectors.
