Work Not Reflected in Preview

Even though I followed the instructions precisely, when I hit preview the screen shot just says Index html twice rather than the work I completed. Suggestions to remedy this issue sincerely appreciated!

Hi Mountain,

Without seeing your code, I cannot say for sure what the problem is. I do have this happen to me on occasion though. When it happens, there are a couple of things to try. First make sure that you are saving your file before you hit the preview button. The other thing to try is a manual refresh of your preview page in the browser. I have found that sometimes the preview page just loads the cached version without my new edits.

If either of those two quick fixes don't work there is likely something wrong with your code that is preventing the new changes from appearing. Post a link and I would be happy to see if I can help.
