Css Foundations: grouping and modifying- blank page

When I grouped my selectors and refreshed my Chrome browser, nothing showed up. My code looks fine to me but maybe another set of eyes will have an easier time finding my error?

This is Html

<html>
    <head>
        <title>Css Foundations</title>
        <meta charset="UTF-8">
        <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0">
        <link rel="stylesheet" href="Css/grouping.css">
    </head>
    <body>
        <div class="base"></div>
        <div class="base radius"></div>
        <div class="base radius ellipse"></div>
    </body>
</html>

This is CSS

.base {
    display: inline-block;
    width: 200px;
    height: 200px;
    margin: 0 15px;
    background-color: cornflowerblue;
}

.radius {
    border-radius: 50%;
}

.ellipse {
    height: 120px;
}

Hi Bryan,

I copied and pasted your code and it displayed in my browser (Chrome); a blue square, circle, and ellipse. Are you sure Css/grouping.css is correct? The first c is capitalized.

Hey Jeff, thanks for the advice. The folder was fine. I literally have no idea what fixed it, but it it better now. Virtually the same code. Only thing that was added was type="text/css" in the html link tag. I only added that because Netbeans suggested it, but it'd never been necessary before when linking a stylesheet, so go figure. Thanks anyway though!
