Is it just me, or is Chrome buggy when trying to do these courses?

I'm using Google Chrome Version 54.0.2840.98 (64-bit). I've been doing the Front End Web Development track and notice that the continue button at the end of each video jumps around and doesn't work to move forward to the next course. Thankfully, there is a small arrow button as an alternative. The course overview above the video doesn't display right when I hover my mouse over them either. Now, currently with this course, my code seems correct, but doesn't execute properly:

alert("Hello from Treehouse"); document.write("<h1>Welcome to JS Basics!</h1>"); alert("Thanks for Visiting!");

The video explains that the syntax should run 1, 2, 3. However, for me it runs 1,3,2. The Text does not write to the HTML document as the second step.

Should I be using a different browser?

Hi Eduardo,

We do apologize for any troubles. We are aware of this issue and our developers are working on the fix. As Alex mentioned, we may recommend using a different browser if this becomes frustrating in the meantime. Thank you for your patience!

Best, Kara

Don't worry; I've seen another question about this same thing. You aren't alone. :smile:

Until Treehouse fixes this issue, try using a different browser.

Tagging Kara P

Until this issue is fixed try using Firefox or Safari (I guess IE8 and above is ok but there are lots of disabilities with IE7 and down)

Good luck! ~alex
