Doesn't look the same once uploaded

Hi Thierry!,

Im not sure exactly what does not look the same, although i know what can usually cause something like this to happen is if your paths are not correct. This means you may have relative paths linking to files built locally. (I.E linking to a file on the C: drive or to the desktop.) Once you upload your files they should all be relative still, although they need to link to link to other files in your folder instead of where they may have been created locally. This happens often in CSS files and in your HTMLl when linking to CSS files.

Also, Please make sure you have uploaded all of your files to the correct directory.

If you can provide some more information we can offer a better solution :)

Hope this helps!

Thank you both for your answers!

The permission was set to 600, I set it to 644 and it works just fine! Thanks a lot! Permission for normalize.css is set to 600, should I keep it the same or also change it ?

I would say set it to 644 as well just in case you would like to make some edits to it. Based on James's post, and what you have written above. Because its a subdomain, your are not automatically given full permission to read and write all files uploaded:)

You are very welcome!

Thierry - As a general rule of thumb all HTML/CSS/JavaScript files as well as image files should be set to 644 when you upload them.

I updated my original advice to include normalize.css for future searchers who find this thread.

Thanks a lot guys ! ;)
It's fun to learn with treehouse!
