I'm using "TextMate" on my Macbook Pro to edit my websites HTML and CSS and when I wanted to test it out, I used Cyberduck to upload my website via SFTP. I've made sure the .html files were uploaded in the parent directory and the .css and image files in their respective folders. Upload completes and when I go to check my website, there are no style sheets. Just HTML. My website is still very plain and a work in progress but there should be at least some design/css there. What's happening?

1,301 PointsLooks like the html is not linked to the css. can you show us your code for all pages?

1,242 PointsOkay. This is all of my index.html
<!DOCTYPE html> <html> <head> <meta charset="utf-8"> <title>English in Sydney | Private Tutoring</title> <link rel="stylesheet" href="css/normalize.css"> <link rel="stylesheet" href="css/main.css"> </head> <body> <header> <a href="index.html"> <h1>Learning English</h1> <h2>has never been so easy.</h2> </a> <nav> <ul> <li><a href="index.html" class="selected">Home</a></li> <li><a href="about.html">About</a></li> <li><a href="contact.html">Contact</a></li> </ul> </nav> </header> <div id="wrapper"> <p>Giving you what you need, when you need it, where you need it.</p> <footer> <a href="http://twitter.com/sonrivera"><img src="img/twitter-wrap.png" alt="Twitter Logo" class="social-icon"></a> <a href="http://facebook.com/sonrivera"><img src="img/facebook-wrap.png" alt="Facebook Logo" class="social-icon"></a> <p>© Learning English 2015.</p> </footer> </body> </html>
Not sure if I should post all my other files. Seems a little long. But the names of my .css files are main.css and normalize.css. They are located in my CSS folder. My CSS folder is all capitals. Would that be the problem?
