I cannot see the change of my CSS file to update

Hi guys I have change the code to my CSS file and look that is not updating the change in my Local host (MAMP) When I enter to source I can see that is not saving any chnages. I double check where my file is saved and is correct.

Source code <!DOCTYPE html> <html> <head> <meta charset="utf-8"> <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href=/Project-one/styles.css> <title></title> </head> <body> <article class="article1"> <h2 class="test1">Article one title</h2> <p>Article one paragraph</p> </article> ....

CSS file of source code test1 { color:green; } aside{ color:green; }

The real code for CSS test1 { color:blue; }

From what you posted, I see that the "." is missing from your class names inside your css file

ex

.test1 { 
    color:green; 
} 

.aside{ 
    color:green; 
}

Thank you,

How ever any change will be reflected. I did your change and instead of color: green; I change it to blue and is not showing.
