Treehouse TeacherHi there! To be clear, workspaces (at least for this course) is essentially a text editor. The code is then run on your machine and in your browser. It is not actually run in workspaces.
There are a few things that can cause this besides something being wrong with your code. First, and foremost, make sure you've saved your file. If there is an orange dot on the tab in workspaces, it has not been saved. Also, there is the possibility that Chrome is loading in a cached version of your code instead of your newly altered code. Try clearing your browser cache, launching the preview, and refreshing the page. Alternatively, you can try viewing it in a private browser tab which has no cached files.
Finally, if this doesn't work, we're going to need to actually see your code. This is most easily accomplished by providing us with a snapshot. This will allow us to fork your workspace and have a closer look at your code/file structure to eliminate any problems there.
I look forward to hearing back from you!
