CSS BACKGROUND COLOUR WONT CHANGE

When I run the code the background colour doesnt change although the Nav does-

<!DOCTYPE html> <html> <head> <title>TRANOHF SRL</title> <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="css/style.css"> <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="css/bootstrap.min.css"> <link rel="stylesheet" href="https://maxcdn.bootstrapcdn.com/font-awesome/4.5.0/css/font-awesome.min.css"> <meta charset="utf-8"> <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1"> </head> <body> <h1 class="text-center">Transporte de Cargas Liquidas</h1> <div class="container"> <div id="nav1" class="navbar"> <ul class="nav navbar-nav"> <li> <a href="index.html"><i class="fa fa-home"></i> Inicio</a> </li> <li class="active"> <a href="galeria.html"><i class="fa fa-photo"></i> Galeria</a> </li> <li> <a href="contacto.html"><i class="fa fa-envelope"></i> Contacto</a> </li> <li> <a href="nosotros.html"><i class="fa fa-users"></i> Nosotros</a> </li> </ul> </div>

CSS:

body { background-color: Red;

}

nav1{

margin-left: 340px; font-size: 20px;

}

Hi Mariano, I tried your code and it worked for me, both background and nav element are red. Are your body, div and html tags correctly closed? Because they aren't in the snippet

Furthermore, you are using an ID selector for the nav element so you should write #nav1
