I'm only looking:

A) Sólo estoy mirando.

B) Solo estoy mirando.

This is the phrase my teacher taught, I just can't tell if there's an accent over it or not. Help!!

Most people don't use the accent anymore according to R A E suggestions.

But here are the rules:

Sólo vs. solo:

Sólo (with an accent) = solamente, only (an adverb)

solo (without an accent mark) = alone (an adjective).
