1,308 PointsHaving problem with CSS internal styling
I am on the final video of the first stage of the CSS deep dive but my page doesnt seem to be rendering the code properly. I wrote the code from the video, word for word, into a wordpad doc but saved it as a html file. however this internal styling code:
<html lang="en">
<head>
<title>Adding CSS</title>
<style type = "text/css">
h1{
color: white; background-color: #E14607;
}
</style>
</head>
Does not seem to be effective. Also this line "{\rtf1\ansi\ansicpg1252\deff0\deflang2057{\fonttbl{\f0\fswiss\fcharset0 Arial;}} {*\generator Msftedit 5.41.21.2509;}\viewkind4\uc1\pard\f0\fs20 \par \par \par \par \par \par \par \par \par" appears at the top of the page and "\par" appears all over the page where the <p> tags are. Can anyone help?

Notepad will work in a pinch however, your life will be much easier if you use a text editor meant for coding, notepadd++ is a one of the best on Windows.
