Incorrect target name causes issues with code editor and goals

See original GitHub issue

Challenge Name

Target a specific child of an element using jQuery

Issue Description

If the target is incorrectly listed as (“target-nth-child(2)”) as opposed to the correct (“target:nth-child(2)”) then when the run tests button is clicked the code editor section will begin flash black/white and then settle on white. If you attempt to reload the page the editor will appear as it should however it will not display the goals until the correct target name is entered and you hit the run tests button.

@erictleung Would be fixed to a point with this PR #9490

There is a bigger bug at play, but we haven’t found it yet

When I input your code and run tests, the tests disappear for me. I’m running Chrome on Mac OS X Yosemite.

Not sure how we would tackle this. The code is incorrect and it’s creating unintended effects in the emulator.
