My preview doesn't seem to work normally??

I have all my code right but when I go to preview it, it goes to another page that has a title that says 'Index of / ' then on the next line in a bullet point is has my file name, and if I click on it then it takes me to my preview as normal... Just wondering, because in the videos it doesn't have it??

Here's the address... Hope it works if you enter it into the URL bar!! port-80-x8fcr3t77x.treehouse-app.com

Marisa,

Try naming the file 'index.html' and not 'Index.html'. The capitalization is significant. What you're seeing is the default virtual directory listing when an 'index.html' file isn't found.

Thankyou so much!! It worked... haha it's funny how something so simple as a capital letter in the wrong place can mess up so many things.

Thanks!!

It sounds like the workspaces is having server issues. I bet the technical team are already aware and trying to solve the issue. Try coming back to it in half an hour or so :)
