Problem with Preview

My code is not showing up in Preview. All I see is "Index.html" I have started Web Design with Nick and my code is the exact same as his but to no avail!

Here is my code. Any help would be much appreciated.

<!DOCTYPE html> <html> <head> <meta charset="utf-8"> <title>AJ Hamner | Coder</title> </head> <body> <header> <h1>AJ Hamner</h1> <h2>Coder</h2> </header> <section> <p>Gallery will go here</p> </section> <footer> <p>© 2014 AJ Hamner </p> </footer> </body> </html>

Your code is good. It's a bug in the program or with your browser. I've personally had trouble using Google Chrome...

A further thought on the html tag reply by Ben. Not only is there no closing html tag but the opening tag is also missing.

<html> Everything else </html>

This might result in a complete non-display like that being experienced!!??

Ben Ragsdale, I tried it on Safari but still not working. I wonder if Launchspace simply has a serious bug. Bummer. What can I do besides sign up for CodeSchool instead of Treehouse? ;) I'm just not sure how soon I can get this resolved.

I didn't notice this before, but do you have a closing html tag? ( </html> )

Also, you could download the course documents -- HTML, CSS-- use Sublime to edit them, and display them in your browser. It's a great way to play around and learn..

Hope this helps.
