1,759 PointsLinking css files not working?
I'm on how-to-make-a-website/css-cascading-style-sheets/use-id-selectors and I've noticed that my css stylesheets aren't linking properly. Both normalize.css and main.css fail to make changes to my website.
I've checked the code, capitalization, spelling, folder placement, etc. against the videos and everything appears to be correct. I've cleared my browser cache (Chrome Version 49.0.2623.110 (64-bit) running on El Capitan) and restarted my browser session, no good.
I'm really scratching my head here. I'm happy to link to my code if someone would like to take a look, but I'm not sure how to do that from my workspace. Just c/p here?
I also have a support ticket pending for this, but any help in the meantime is much appreciated. I've looked around the forum and practiced my google-fu unsuccessfully.
Thanks in advance!

1,759 PointsAlright, I've added comments with the contents of index.html and main.css above. Thanks!

1,759 PointsHah! I missed that the = and " were transposed on the link to main.css, how embarrassing. Thanks for helping me spot it!
