Anyone having trouble with the 4th video on the CSS basics tutorial?

Anyone having trouble with the 4th video on the CSS basics tutorial? I have followed the code exactly on the website but my id's won't work. I have tested it by downloading the source code and copying it into the work space and it isn't working. The code is correct but It could be a bug on the workspace. Just thought someone could test this out for me? cheers guys!

Hi Thomas,

Did you managed to sort this or is the problem still there ?

It seems to be a bug, I can get the Id's to work by copying the css and index files to desktop then opening with safari. (don't forget to change the location of the css file <link rel="stylesheet" href="style.css"> if needed.)

Hi Amber,

Can you post your code, or a snap shot of your workspace that was not working?

If this is a bug I will let Treehouse know and they can get down to fixing it :)
