remove li, code works on the treehouse workspace, but when do the same code in notepad++ it doesn't remove the li tags

I don't know why, I can get this code to work on the treehouse workspace, but when I use the same code in Notepad++ and view the page in chrome , it won't remove the li tags, but it adds the li tags with no problem. Is there any particular reason why it does that?

Try to view the source in windows editor while you are editing it in notepad++. If you discover the same issue in the editor then chrome has no fault. Otherwise disable the caching in chrome via the developer tools / network -> check disable cache.
