I am also having problems with the code challenge. The one I am on is linked below. I have restarted it multiple times, logged out then in, tried a different browser, restarted my computer, etc. and it still doesn't work.

I put in <!DOCTYPE html> and it asked me to declare a doctype or something like that. I keep getting an error but the quiz after it worked fine.

Kim- I went to the code challenge link and typed in <!DOCTYPE html> just like you did. It passed fine. Wondering if you made sure to put a space between DOCTYPE and html? I ran into some glitches when I was taking the "How to Make a Website" so maybe it was a bug they fixed today. -Kathleen

I have found with the code challenge if I maximize the window the code challenge works well. But if I reduce the size of the screen any amount, I can't click into the program to add code. I usually work with 3 or 4 programs open all at 1/2 screen. I am happy I realized I need to go to full screen size for the code challenge. I was getting very frustrated over these code challenges.
