Reporting in that while I tested this and every playground in both chrome and firefox and found no issues, after reading this thread I decided to pull IE 11 down off the back of the shelf, dust it off and give it a shot and low and behold, I do encounter an issue with the playground in there. It comes up, it's just empty. No script error or freezing or anything ... save the top header with the treehouse logo, it's just empty.

Cheers,

Huck - :sunglasses:

Are you on the first or second video of the course? When I first started the SQL course. I had to go to the second video to bring up SQL Playground!

Hey Ashish Yadav,

What browser are you using and what version are you running?

Have you tried other browsers or updated to the latest version?

Is it only that one playground or all of them?

All other playgrounds are opening e.g. that of java course.but SQL courses are not available. I have checked only the first two or three playgrounds.

What's the specs of your machine? Are you using this on a work network? (Trying to eliminate why it's not showing for you)

Can you take a screenshot of what happens and if there's any errors in the JavaScript debug console in your browser?

Hello all, I'm also having the same issue in Internet Explorer 11. The only thing that loads is the Treehouse header and home link. I was trying to complete this video at work during my lunch break. However I just tried accessing the SQL Playground for this course from my home network on the same computer and it still won't load. I'm using a new work computer so I tried accessing a CSS course to see if the workspace would work and it does. I can try to follow up with a screenshot and see if anything comes up in the JavaScript debugger if that would help...

Also, I should have noted that I tried the SQL Playground for the following two videos and I had the same issue.

Hello all, I'm using the latest Chrome: 47.0.2526.106 m, and on video "Your First SQL Statement" launching SQL playground crashed the browser for Treehouse and for the SQL playground. I know this isn't exactly the same issue as this seems to be, but I just want to note that I experienced a problem running SQL playground.

You do not have to do every homework in order of video. Hitting a mental wall is highly possible in many individual situations. I can't think, now how to work around this event. That's a useful skill.
