Index.html not updating when working with Sass.

The styles aren't updating in the browser. im using the sass watch and the css file updates after editing the scss, but nothing happens to the index.html. something else i have noticed is that sublime text 2 just calls the scss plain text on the bottom right, and has no color unlike in the videos.

Please Help!

Can you post the code. Also, do you have the correct path to your css file on index.html? The no color and plain text are nothing to worry about, if you are watching your sass file, it will update your css file.

Joshua, need to see your code to compare.Sometimes it could be a misspelled word or a missing quotation.

No, problem. It's a common error.
