Trouble with my Workspace page showing what the instructor shows.

When I am adding content material to the index.hmtl page in Workspace I cannot get the blue link text of <a href="index.html"> to show up nor can will the <ul> material I've included. I've followed the instructor's instructions to the T, re-written the code from scratch, triple checked the work and I cannot find the problem. I am sure it's easily explained but I don't know what it could be. Any help would be appreciated and I'll get a Snapshot up when I figure out how. Thanks.

For some reason the whole message I posted here is not being displayed. Ugh.... Ok.

Hi Tyrel,

A snapshot would be very helpful in trouble shooting your problem. To post a snapshot, in the top-right hand corner of your workspace, there will be 3 icons: The first one looks kind of like a camera. That is the snapshot option. A window will open and gives you the option to "Take Snapshot."

Once that is done, just click on the link generated, and this will open a new window/tab with you snapshot workspace. Copy the url in the address bar and paste that into your forum question. Then we can see what the code is and help solve the problem.

:)

Hi Tyrel Kessinger, I've formatted your question to display the HTML you were trying to describe. Markdown will parse and display inline HTML as the actual elements, so you need to escape the angle brackets (< and >) to get them to display, using &lt; and &gt; respectively.
