linking normalize.css to index.html

I am taking the php course. At the very end of the HTML Content section, normalize.css is added to index.html using link. In the video, when the preview was run, the bullets before each image on the image gallery disappeared, but when I did the same thing, the bullets still appear.

It's probable that your link to normalize.css is wrong or missing something, can you post the code?

```Here is my code in the head section: <head> <meta charset="utf-8"> <title>Bruce Gordon | Designer</title> <link rel="stylesheet" href="css/normalize.css"> </head>

you're missing the type="text/css", wich specifies the MIME type of the linked document.

<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="css/normalize.css">

```I modified it, saved it and got the same result with the bullets when I previewed it.. <!DOCTYPE html> <html> <head> <meta charset="utf-8"> <title>Bruce Gordon | Designer</title> <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="css/normalize.css"> </head> I haven't gotten into the css part of the course yet. Do you know where the bullets would be turned off or if I could send you the normalize.css that I have>

mmm well if your normalize.css is the one provided by treehouse i don't know what is the problem, but the way to turn off bullets on unordered list is this way:

ul {
list-style-type: none;
}

I have been taking the class using Google Chrome. When I tried using Internet Explorer or Firefox, the bullets disappear. I guess whenever something I do doesn't work like it does in the video, I should try it in different browsers. I removed the type="text/css" and it didn't make any difference. Thanks.
