when i write the code in the exercise i cant see the output. what can i do to see it?

Hi Robinson!

First, make sure that your stylesheet is being correctly linked to your html! You should have something similar to the following code inside your pages head element.

<link rel="stylesheet" href="css/main.css"

Also, the code in your CSS file should be roughly similar to the code below. This code changes the background of the site to light blue!

body {
    background-color: lightblue;
}

Hope this helps out!

In that case teamtreehouse can take it as a suggestion to make that change so students like me can know what happens when they write the code.. I think it will be very helpful.. thanks for ur reply..

Its attached properly but its not showing the final executed code when i hit preview.. all throughout the exercise i just see the same basic preview .. so i actually don't know whats happening when i write the code. i just get the green sing that the code was correct and i move on.

You mean in the Code Challenges right? At the end of each video?

Usually they have you do what has already been done in the video you watched prior to the exercise.

After each step in the challenge you can see what you did previously by clicking the preview button, but I don't think there's any way to see it in the actual exercise thing unless you do it on the side on your own.

You bet.

Maybe Luke Glazebrook can further elaborate...
