656 Pointsthe color display is not showed when the mouse cursor is place up on the hexadecimal code. How do I get it to show?
When working in workspace or during the exercise challenge, after entering the hexadecimal color code, with the mouse cursor by the code, I can't get it to display the color. I do my training through window 7 boot camp with my macbook pro. Is there a way to get it working?

I remember trying this in several code challenges myself and the box doesn't pop up.

are you trying to change the color on the hover state if so.
.example:hover{
color:#000;

4,649 PointsI have been having the same issue but I attribute it to the browser and OS combination...Are you using any Linux distro(s) and if so what browser? I am using Ubuntu 10.04 with Firefox and the hover color preview does not work even with the "quick view on hover" selected in my workspace.
