Is there something wrong with this code challenge?

I've done every variation of code possible, and it wont go through. Furthermore, the preview hasn't changed at all, no matter what CSS is written in. Even getting rid of the links to the CSS files in index.html won't change the preview. Might that have something to do with it?

Hi Patrick,

Can you post the code you tried?

Patrick, can you also specify the browser you're using? We've had one other student ask about the preview as well. Thanks.

P.S. You can see how to post code here.

I think there's been several reports about the preview not working anymore. I tried one from this course in firefox and it didn't work. There used to be a "refresh" button when you went into preview.

Nevermind, it was my bad. I kept adding hyphens to the position property. But the preview still didn't work. I'm using Chrome as my browser.

I'm using Firefox and the preview sometimes work well and others not but if you click "Check Your Work" and is written correctly it's validate, and if there is something wrong you have the chance of check your code again.

My preview does not work either. I am using Chrome. When I took the challenge I wrote the sam eexact code and I passed the test, but in the preview it is impossible to see how the page will be. Some advice? Thank you

This was my code <!DOCTYPE html> <html> <head> <meta charset="uft8"> <title>Patrizia Sowinski | Broker</title> <head> <body> <header> <h1>Patrizia Sowinski </h1> <h2>Broker </h2> </header> <section> <p>Gallery will be here.</p> </section> <footer> <p>Ā© 2014 Patrizia Sowinski.</p> </footer> </body> </html>

I'm going to assume Treehouse is aware of the issue, but I think it's specific to Windows. However, just to be sure, I'm letting Jim Hoskins know. I think he might know something about it.

Treehouse staff has been notified as well. I'm sure it will get resolved soon!
