7,561 Pointsgrid.css and normalize.css
I have been spinning my wheels for hours now. I thought everything was okay until I got further in the exercise and find that the .css files are not changing my site.
It says that grid.css is in the project files. There are not in the zip files I see.
ALSO, I love a challenge BUT I can't make heads or tails out of how to follow those instructions for normalize.css AND knowing that it is done correctly OR how to fix it if it is not.
Can you just send me the files I need, PLease. I thank you from the bottom of my heart.

10,027 PointsIn the files I have for the Smells Like Bakin file, in the CSS file has normalize.css AND grid.css. Did you write the code for the external CSS right?
In terms of what they do, you wont really notice what normalize.css does, cause it works with different browsers to override some basic settings they each have. With Grid, you will get into it in a following video.

7,561 PointsI am a newbie so forgive me. Let me rephrase. May I please have a copy of normalize.css and grid.css emailed to me as an attachment.
On the website there is only a link to gridulator.com not grid.css As for normalize.css I can't follow those instructions in that endless loop of websites that lead to other websites that do not give you step by step instructions.
Thank you so much. :)

7,561 PointsNevermind. I found an answer from James for normalize.css - cut and paste the code into my text editor. then I found a website http://www.gridsystemgenerator.com/gs01.php?GridWidth=1008&GridColumns=12&GridMarginLeft=2&GridMarginRight=2&sc=1
I couldn't enter the exact dimensions BUT now I see changes in the website when I refresh my browser. I cut and paste that code into my web browser also.
