1,269 PointsNo matter how many times I save and verify the scripts.js in this tut, it still renders the errored version.
I modified the file to have the following....
alert("hello there");
document.write("No it works!");
but no matter how many times I save it in your text editor, it renders the unedited demo file in the browser.

I was on another user's question and was watching the video back, saw your question, and forgot that I had originally commented on it asking you to post your code lol I see now that you edited your question to include your code. The problem with just editing your question, though, instead of posting a comment to the question (or answer), is that no one is updated whenever you edit your question/answer/comment. We're only updated when another user (including yourself) posts a comment/answer in the thread.
If you haven't fixed this yet, I would try to delete your cache and then reload the web page. Your code looks fine, so it's likely a problem with the cache.
