The media query isn't changing the background color when I resize the window. I'm not sure which browser it's loading on either. When I click on the preview button at the top right it just pops up in a different window all by itself.
I tried to find it to open it up with safari, but can't locate the file when I use the search button. It shows 6 other files with the name index.html but those were other projects. So how can I open this in another browser to test it there?

In your media query you have a ":" after the "body" tag, it should not be there.
@media (max-width: 960px) {
body {
background-color: royalblue;
}
p { color: white; }
}
