Icons not showing up

Hi, The url link in my CSS seems to be broken and the icons are not showing up. Could use a fresh set of eyes to see what I'm missing. Thanks for any help!!

<section> <h3>Contact Details</h3> <ul class="contact-info"></ul> <li class="phone"><a href="tel:816-200-2062">816-200-2062</li> <li class="mail"><a href="mailto:info@brooksideguitars.com">Email Us</li> <li class="twitter"><a href="http://twitter.com/intent/tweet?screen_name=bksgtr">@bksgtr</li> </section>

.contact-info li.phone a { background-image: url('../img/phone.png'); }

.contact-info li.mail a { background-image: url('../img/mail.png'); }

.contact-info li.twitter a { background-image: url('../img/twitter.png'); }

Your unordered list is closed before the list is complete. Move the &#60/ul&#62 to end of the list after the twitter link.

Thanks Michael! Don't know how I missed that

Hi Frederico,

It's most likely your path to your image directory that's incorrect. What this says: ''../img/phone.png" is - from the current directory (the one containing index.html), go up a level, and then look for a directory called /img. That's likely not where your /img directory is located. It's probably a subdirectory of your current (root) directory, so your path to the images should just be 'img/img-name.png'.

Hope that helps!

Thanks Cena, I thought that as well but that did not solve it. I'm currently writing this in Textastic in iOS; is there any chance that the .. Command is somehow different in this app??? Otherwise my page will just have to be icon-less for the time being.

Thanks again

I think you forgot the closing tag of anchor tag? </a> before the closing tag of list tag </li>
