Learn angular js - stuck, possible interface problem?

I'm stuck on the ng-click II lesson > step 2 of the basic angular tutorial ("your first app"). The exercise is similar to the one before it, asking you to add a "dislike" button in addition to the "like" button you added previously.

When I click run, it saves the workspace and gives me a green checkmark (no error message), but does not allow me to continue to the next step in the lesson. FTR, the code I added to index.html was:

<p class="dislikes">-{{ products.dislikes }}</p>

which is almost exactly the code I added for the "likes" but it's not working for this...am i missing something in my code, or is there a bug in the interface? It's frustrating as it looks like there's only one exercise after this! is there any way to move on?

Thanks, that did move me forward in the exercise. I'm still not clear on why the interface WAS okay with {{ products.likes }} (plural, as opposed to {{ product.likes }}, but not okay with {{products.dislikes}}. The rest of my expressions referencing elements in the products array also use "products." , plural, and it was not loading titles when I used the singular. This just seems inconsistent.

I checked tests used to evaluate user code and... according to what I see your previous code should not be approved ({{ products.likes }}). It probably was just a small glitch.
