-meta charsets should be -meta charset -closing title tag- shouldn't have a comment tag at the end of it -->
Hope that helps. Good luck. :-)

11,940 PointsAs Warren said, you have a few mistakes in your code, so try to fix those and see if your page has any changes.
Without a screenshot or a description of how your page looks different, I'd have to guess that maybe you're using a different browser, and that's why the page is looking different. Could you go into more detail about how your page is not displaying the same?

324 PointsHi Guys,
I have watched the Tutorial again and here is my code now,
<!DOCTYPE html> <html> <head> <meta charset="utf-8"> <title>I've been there | Me too</title> </head> <body> <header> <h1>so have i</h1> <h2>and meeeeee toooo</h2> </header> <section> <p>Gallery will go here.</p> </section> <footer> <p>© RealPlaces.com</p> </footer> </body> </html>
This is the page I get,

11,940 PointsDo you land on a page with "Index of ../", Kevin, and if so, is that the difference you're talking about?

11,940 PointsThat seems to be a bug with Workspace Previews right now. Don't worry about it, just click through to your HTML file and the proper page will load. So is that the issue you were talking about then?
