Using Sublime text 2 with this project

I'm trying to create the "Go Back" link in this project but the <a href="../index.html">Go Back<a> isn't working. When I save changes it creates a duplicate file outside of the my_directory folder. Any ideas on what I'm doing wrong? Thanks

Are you sure you are working on the right file? It usually tells you the path at the top of the Sublime screen :

I was just having the same problem. When you initially saved the another_page.html file, you were putting it in the same folder as your index.html file. After you moved another_page.html into the my_directory folder, your text editor is still set to ctrl+s your another_page.html in the same folder as your index.html. File>Save As> and put your new destination as inside your my_directory folder and your issue should be resolved.

No problem. Thank you as well. If you hadn't indicated that it kept creating a file in the original directory I would have been stumped for a lot longer I think. You were half of the solution! :D
