External Markdown doesn't work in reveal.js-2.4.0 from https://github.com/hakimel/reveal.js/releases

        <div class="slides">

            <section data-markdown="markdown.md" data-separator="^\n\n\n" data-vertical="^\n\n"></section>

markdown.md file is

## Test1

test2

I get error

ERROR: The attempt to fetch markdown.md failed with the HTTP status 0. Check your browser's JavaScript console for more details.

Remember that you need to serve the presentation HTML from a HTTP server and the Markdown file must be there too.

In web console

From REAME.md

External Markdown

You can write your content as a separate file and have reveal.js load it at runtime. Note the separator arguments which determine how slides are delimited in the external file.

<section data-markdown="example.md" data-separator="^\n\n\n" data-vertical="^\n\n"></section>

What is the problem with external Makrdown?

You'll need to run the presentation in a local web server for external markdown to work. The development setup comes with a grunt serve task for this: https://github.com/hakimel/reveal.js#full-setup

Let me know if you experience any issues with it after it's in a web server.

Please update README as it was said so.

+1, Would be great if you could update the readme.

Thank you, Hakim

Is there a workaround for this, if I am using it in combination with Github Pages? I get the same error.

[noraj]

it works with grunt but not with others web servers, I can't host my presentation.

[johnwry]

Has anybody got this to working by any chance?

[paulvi]
