Are There Finished Files to Download?

Hi, I'm new to Treehouse. I am currently stuck on the Smells Like Bakin project. I can't find where I messed up my code.

  1. Is there a way in Sublime Text 2 to see if I have tags that aren't written correctly or don't have closing tags?
  2. Is there a completed file for download so I can compare my html file to the correct finished file, so I can see where I am going wrong?

Thanks! Lenny

Hi Lenny,

if you download the project files further down the line/stage they will evolve with the objectives gone through in each video.

I believe sublime text gives you these vertical lines to help you see which tags are on the same level. If your code is properly indented then each tag should be lined up with its closing tag.

Hope it won't be too painful to find the devious tag!

Before you throw in the towel you might want to consider uploading you code to a code pen and let someone help you find what's wrong. Although no better training then inspecting code for mistakes.

Ahh. I eventually found my issue after checking my code line for line. The problem was not in my html but in the fact that I moved my css file out of the css folder, so the path I listed in the html file was incorrect. I moved the css file back into the css folder and I'm good. Thanks.

Yes. On every single lesson there should be "project files" (look to the right of the video) you can download (usually in .zip format) with both the start and end files in them. They will download to whatever your designated download folder is (usually "Downloads"), so once you click on it the file will download and open in a folder with the start and end folders in them. I hope that helps.

Excellent. I did not realize the end files were there. That's perfect. Thanks!
