When I push preview it doesn't preview the work I am currently working on, it just shows the Nick Pettit page.

i have tried making new workspaces, saving, closing the old ones etc, not sure why it won't preview the thing I am currently working on.

What are you trying to preview? Are you trying to view a certain html file within the workspace?

Yes, I am trying to preview the "index.html" file. Shouldn't it preview whatever file I have open and am currently working on? even when I change the file it seems to be previewing nothing changes though...

From my experience with Workspaces, clicking on Preview opens the index.html file regardless of what file is open (but since that's the file you want to preview, this shouldn't be an issue). Did you save the changes before you previewed it? What do you currently have in the index.html file?

I think it was a problem with Chrome. It works with Firefox. Thanks for your help.

Ok, it works for me in Chrome, but glad you got it figured out!

Joel, I was having a lot of issues everytime there was a challenge. Another option is disabling any popup blockers (like Adblock) for Treehouse.com. This has made it so that I can still use Chrome and do my lessons. Also, clearing my cache has helped.
