Did not work for me


 

Did not work for me

Hey, I just tested it. I tried and it failed on me as well...that’s when I caught it...the ÒscriptÓ (unfortunate formatting)

Before pasting the code. It just requires the <script> before the code and </script> at the end of the code. It works now, quite interesting!

Looks like something below, the code just needs a script hug. :

<script>

08 copy and paste the code ]]

</script>

 

Good luck!
 


Thank you Howie! I tried it, but it still doesn’t seem like it’s working...
