@glaucia86 your code worked for me. Try copying your code (for safe-keeping) and then refreshing the browser page? Or try a different browser perhaps.

Hi @glaucia86! Thank you for reporting this issue.

The code from the link is wrong, but the code you shared in the issue description is correct and works.
The first time I clicked your link I could not edit the line, related to https://github.com/FreeCodeCamp/FreeCodeCamp/issues/7847
Can you try what Dylan suggested, and elaborate on your issue?

Hi @systimotic I did what you told me.... I just refreshing my browser and worked it!! I will close this issue!!

You guys are awesome!

Thanks a lot!

Sounds like the issue is resolved. Closing as resolved. Happy coding!

I use Google chromes incognito mode[sic!] there I had the same issue, but it worked perfectly in Firefox.
