What happens if you mess up typing your coding while in Workspace & can't correct it?

I thought I messed up the coding I typed from previous videos & had to delete it several times & retype it correctly. The corrected profile didn't appear until I saved the coding & hit F5 (refresh) twice. I'm locked out of "Beginning HTML & CSS", so I can't go back & review the videos once I'm locked out. My profile turned out correctly, but I was concerned that my typing errors wouldn't allow me to progress through this training.

If you plan to code often I highly recommend you take online classes to help you type better. As for being locked out of "Beginning HTML & CSS", that's impossible, i'm able to access all my previous courses. However if you are having an issue with that, the best thing to do would be to go to the library(On Treehouse not your local library) and find the course there, and access it.

Happy Coding!

My typing isn't the issue. I've been typing for several decades. It's not saving the coding more frequently. It's otherwise accidentally deleting my index.html file instead of an incorrectly downloaded file. Yes, I'm already enrolled in "Beginning HTML & CSS." I did try to get back into the 1st session once I completed it & yes, I received a message telling me it was locked up. I haven't tried to go back into it since. I don't need to at this point in order to reconstruct the HTML coding homework I've completed up to the point I'm currently at.

There is an issue with the instructor's videos as he's using Apple MacIntosh OS & not Microsoft Windows 7. There is no "Refresh" right circulating arrow to the left of my index.html tab in my Workspace. I have to use the F5 key to "Refresh" my Workspace profile. He's using "Command" & shortcut keys. I have to use "Ctrl" & shortcut keys. Downloading an image file according to his instructions doesn't work with Microsoft Windows 7. It doesn't matter if I use Microsoft Internet Explorer 11, Google Chrome, or Mozilla Firefox browsers, either.
