While doing a code challenge in the html video tutorial I was asked to insert a url for the source video. This was a very long url and I had to type it out by hand as I couldn't copy and paste. It would be a benefit to users if the url could have been copied from the code challenge instructions.

Another issue I had with the code challenge was that when I was asked to insert some code I would place my finger within the code at the position I wanted to insert my own code. Doing so placed the cursor where I wanted it but then the keyboard would appear and completely block where I wanted to start writing my code. It would have been nice if the code scrolled up so I could see the cursor instead of me having to scroll the page to find where my cursor was positioned.

Thanks for the suggestions. I like the idea of being able to copy and paste from the instructions since things typing a URL isn't really what the code challenge is about.

Which code challenge did the cursor issue happen on? I. Guessing one with a lot of code? I'll take a look soon.

The cursor issue was in html video and audio / The video and source elements.

I had to insert my code below a line marked in the code that was already there. Meaning it was down the page far enough for the keyboard to block it. Even if I scrolled down so the position I wanted to insert my code was at the top of the screen, when I inserted the cursor it would go back to the start of the code appearing at the top of the screen when the keyboard appeared.

Thanks, I've logged these as an issue and enhancement we might add in the future.
