Why wont work spaces upload the img file that im supposed to use to add to image element.

I did everything just like the video showed me and every time i try to drag and drop the files to work spaces it wont upload them. I tried with some of my own images and the same thing happens.

Hi Tena,

It is likely the web browser you are using. What happens when you hold the files on top of the work spaces area? Does the area become highlighted?

May I ask, does the workspaces window respond in any way when you hover over it with the img folder, that is, does the "drop files to upload" section appear at the bottom-left of the window?

I'm having this same problem. Yes, the workspaces window shows the "drop files to upload" section. When I try to drop the images, nothing happens. The images do not upload along the left side like shown in the video.

yes it highlights and says drop file here to upload but when i drop the files nothing happens.

Any change in a different browser? What browser are you currently using?

Useing Google Chrome and no change that I can tell.

Using IE 11. Shouldn't that be acceptable? What should I use?

I think Google Chrome or Mozilla Firefox is a better option, they have great developer tools built in as well, Tena, is your version of Chrome up to date do you know?

Yes its the newest. It's a new computer and we just put the latest version on Google Chrome on in.

I'm really stumped. Might be time to contact support, have you reached out to them? Jim Hoskins any thoughts?

I think that will have to be my next step. Thanks for your time Seth!
