My preview page for about.html is not working. It keeps displaying the preview for the index.html. Can you please advise

Preview page does not seem to be loading about.html, I have tried to clear my browser data however it still loads index.html.

Try deleting your web browser history, & cache,resetting your computer, & loading workspace again. That seemed to work for me, for Safari.

All the best.

Hi Taylor,

Can you post your index page code too please.

Here is a link to explain how to use Markdown to post your code How to post code

If you look at the bottom of the box when your typing a reply you will see Markdown Cheatsheet that will also explain how to post your code.

You have to make sure you have a bit of space under your last line of text in your post. Then you add three back ticks followed by html or css depending on the type of code your inserting.
Then straight after your last line of code you add another three back ticks.
Remember to leave at least a few lines between any text at the top or bottom of your code.

Hope this helps.

Hi Taylor, I'm sure you figured this all out by now since you post is older... I'm just now working on the same exercise and the difference I see is the code is missing between the section open and close. ...that is where all the about info goes with your profile picture etc...

I can post my code if needed but you are now probably on to other lessons. Let me know If you need anything. thanks bob.
