I can't seem to link the style sheets?

Here is my code I just can't figure it out :/ (the folder name I have the files in is called "style" )


<!DOCTYPE html> <html> <head> <meta charset="utf-8"> <title>Niall Maher | Designer</title> <link rel="stylesheet" href="style/normalize.css"> <link rel="stylesheet" href="style/main.css"> </head> <body> <header> <a href="index.html"> <h1>Niall Maher</h1> <h2>Designer</h2> </a> <nav> <ul> <li><a href="index.html">Portfolio</a></li> <li><a href="about.html">About</a></li> <li><a href="contact.html">Contact</a></li> </ul> </nav> </header> <section> <ul> <li> <a href="img/numbers-01.jpg"> <img src="img/numbers-01.jpg" alt=""> <p>Caption example</p> </a>

    </li>

You are missing your <head></head> tags

That should fix it! If not let me know.

<head>
      <title>Niall Maher | Designer</title>
      <link rel="stylesheet" href="style/normalize.css">
     <link rel="stylesheet" href="style/main.css">
</head>

Yeah I did that the head tags just aren't showing here

<!DOCTYPE html> <html> <head> <link rel="stylesheet" href="style/normalize.css"> <link rel="stylesheet" href="style/main.css"> <meta charset="utf-8"> <title>Niall Maher | Designer</title>

</head>

Anyone have any more ideas??

Can you snapshot your workspaces, so I can see the files and directories?

I can't figure out how to upload an image? Do you have sample code for the finished html code and I'll see if it'll link then? Just in case something simple has it not working
