I don't think that's accurate at all, man. I get that html technically isn't programming, but /v/markup doesn't exist and /v/html is dead, so this was the only subverse I could post in and hope to get a few responses from. I'm glad to have learned a lesson about compilation errors rather than spend a week or so thinking "Why does this work at school but not at home?" before finally getting it.
Thanks for letting me know, but letting html stuff in here isn't going to ruin the sub.

Ah, it doesn't matter anymore. I found out that I'm a double dumbo and forgot to close a tag whenever I'm home but remember to close it when I'm at school for some reason. Thanks for trying to help, though!

I've been using ST3 on Linux Mint, but mostly Notepadqq and Notepad++ since that's the software that we get in my school and we can't install any of our own. Thanks for the helpful tip; I did a baby beginner's programming course in Java and I think that I got way too comfy with Eclipse's features for my own good.

I knew what a tag was (Whew) but I haven't heard "a" being called an anchor tag. I'm still 3 days in the course, remember. I really hope I can get better at this and not embarrass myself in front of voat again.

I figured I'd post here since /v/html is dead, sorry.

Weird.

I should go to jail for not catching this, holy crap. I guess when I've been trying this at school, I've been closing the tag. Now I feel like a double dumbo, but thanks!

Because that didn't help me. I believe that W3Schools is what the teacher wants us to use, but I've been switching between that and Codecademy because I like Codecademy's pace more than W3Schools.
I don't know a diddly dang thing about strict rendering engines, but I tested the code in Firefox. The school computers are running the latest version of Windows 7.
I've used Stackoverflow for Java stuff before, but I didn't find anything pertaining to my issue on there. Still, thanks!
EDIT: HAHAHA VOAT IS SILLY PTTTTTHHHHHHHB

Yes, I'm loading directly from a disk, but I'm doing the same thing from my school computers and I have no issue there. I tried running this in a fresh Chrome install and nothing changed.
Thanks for the info, though!

I'm, uh, still new to this. What does this mean?
I'm using ST3 on Linux. I have to use Notepad++ in school, though. Thanks for the recommendation
