css not working

my CSS is not working.

I cloned the treebook project. ran bundle install and then rake db:migrate and the css is not working. is there another command I need to run to get css (and bootstrap) working?

here's some code:

<div class="page-header"> <h1>All of the Statuses</h1> </div>

<%= link_to "Post a New Status", new_status_path, class: "btn btn-success" %>

<% @statuses.each do |status| %> <div class="status"> <strong><%= status.user.full_name %></strong> <p><%= status.content %></p> <div class="meta"> <%= link_to time_ago_in_words(status.created_at) + " ago", status %> <span class="admin"> | <%= link_to "Edit", edit_status_path(status) %> | <%= link_to "Delete", status, method: :delete, data: { confirm: "Are you sure your want to delete this status?"} %> </span> </div> </div> <% end %>

Did you include the bootstrap.css file in app/assets/stylesheets/ ?

I copied my index.html.erb file from the /statuses/ view here (it's working fine for me): http://pastie.org/8164414

I'm a few chapters ahead of this, but I don't think it looks too different from where you're at.

thanks for the help. I made sure I had the bootstrap.css file etc...

I ended up re-doing the app from the beginning and it's fine now.

thanks,

:)
