HTML How to Make a Website Responsive Web Design and Testing Refactor the Layout

When correcting a mistake in a code challenge it tells you you're wrong even if it's right.

I've noticed a few times that if I'm resubmitting the answer to a code challenge the red 'Bummer you got it wrong' notification will shake again, immediately after submitting the new answer.

If I then wait a few seconds though, it will process my new answer and validate it as correct.

This is quite disconcerting to the user as the immediate feedback is that they got it wrong and they may navigate away, even though if they wait a few more seconds the answer will be validated and they'll be able to progress.

Yeah I get this a lot, you become used to it though, it's probably just a delay between the validation program and the feedback.
