Whenever I go along and type the same code as the instructor in the video into workspace, it often gives me red error highlights over the entered text and starts recommending the wrong tags.
This is a problem because when I go to PREVIEW WORKSPACE, the preview is much different than the instructors preview in the video.
Can someone please let me know if they are having or had the same issue and if they have the solution to it?
