Time out errors in Challenge Tasks

Hi all, I haven't searched the boards yet so maybe there already is an answer to my question, so I apologize in advance. I have been using the site for about an hour, brand new subscriber, and I love it except I can't get the "check work" to work correctly. It gives me a time out error nearly every time UNLESS I have it coded wrong in which case it does tell me what to fix. Any ideas? Thank you Love the site! Chris

Hi, i'm new also at TreamTreeHouse.com and today happen also to me, i just refresh the page, "i'm using SAFARI", and it work. If doesn't work, don't worry close your browser and continue your task.. it will continue from the point you left, so don't worry!

Problably is a time out set, for security, if you are using for many hours, maybe they want you "refresh" - "re-login".

Ciao! Hope this answer help!

If you put the code wrong, you will see the "RED ALLERT" to ask to fix the problem, thats mean you put something wrong on the code during your exercise, double check! If the error continue, i did wrote the code at my text editor and copy and paste inside the online editor and it work :-)

I'll try that Davide. I am using firefox.

A simple browser restart fixed my issue! :)
