Angular.js ng-repeat doesn't display content

Question

I am trying to load some content using ng-repeat with Angular.js. I set up a controller which will create an array, and corresponding HTML uses ng-repeat to display all elements in the array.

HTML:

<div class="list-group" ng-controller="MainController as ctrl">
<p class="list-group-item cat" ng-repeat="element in ctrl.current_articles">{{ element }}</p>
</div>

JS:

angular.module('newsclassifier', [])

.controller('MainController', ['$http', function($http){
  var self = this;
  self.current_articles = [1,2,3,4,5];

}]);

Now on running this code, I am able to see that rows for 5 elements are being created in the corresponding div. However, no content is displayed. I tried using even the $scope syntax, but to no difference. I am running version 1.4.8 of Angular.js. Is there something amiss here?

There is a typo in your markup.

ng-controller="ctrl as MainController"

should be

ng-controller="MainController as ctrl"

oh that was a typo. Not the actual problem though. Updated the question with the changes. Something else might be the problem

@SaurabhSood Did you get any errors in the console?

@SaurabhSood yep, it works fine, here is plunker

Looks to be working in the Plunker. However when I put it in my code, it stops working

Doesn't seem to be any errors. In fact, I can see that 5 rows are being created. Just that there is no content. Even inspecting doesn't show any data.
