Front End Web Development Techdegree Graduate 84,738 PointsSeems like "save" didn't work
I saved my index.html, the orange dot disappeared, but an old version of the webpage kept appearing in preview. Why is that?
I took my html text, put it in a separate text editor and viewed that HTML file in my browser and it worked fine. What's wrong with preview - why would this happen?
Here is my HTML text:
<!DOCTYPE html> <html> <head> <meta charset="utf-8"> <title>My Name | Test Page</title> </head> <body> <header> <h1>My Name</h1> <h2>Test Page</h2> </header> <section> <p>Gallery will go here.</p> </section> <footer> <p>Ā© 2014 My Name</p> </footer> </body>
</html>
