My code won't save when I edit the codebit

When I try to edit the main html code it refuses to save… only when i remove all of the tags will it save the changes but then of course the javascript won’t run…

I’ve never seen that happen before, normally codebits automatically saves as you type.

In your Animate your name codebit you have a bunch of </> that should be </script>, is that an example of something you are trying to change but it won’t stick?.

Yes. I left them blank so that the rest of the code will save. Every time I edit the blank </> to the code won’t save… and it didn’t automatically save to my profile like the “all about me” did.

So you created one from scratch?

I’ll rephrase: when I finished the Animate your Name lesson something did automatically save but it didn’t save all of the code. When I attempted to edit the code it would not let me save the new code with the tags. I figured it was a problem with the codebit or something so I deleted that codebit and created the one on my profile now from scratch. I took the html and js code that I worked on from the lesson and pasted into the new codebit but the same thing… even as I typed when I reached the </script? tag it would attempt to save but just sit there with the “saving…” running (or whatever lol) and when delete the whole tag or just leave it unfinished like i have now [] it saves..

Try to fork one from my profile and see if you can edit it.

Try going back to the last exercise and try submitting again. Maybe delete the one your created first.

Okay I had tried going back to the exercise and re-submitting and that hadn’t worked the first couple of times but it did allow me to fork the one from your page and edit and save so i’m not sure what was going on…. hahaha!

That was a really weird thing Elizabeth, I’ve never seen that happen before. If you try again to create a new one from scratch does it work properly now?
