My resume.css does not seem to be linked to resume.html

I wrote like this on HTML: <link rel="stylesheet" href="resume.css">

And on CSS: hi { color: blue; }

But on preview page, the color doesn't change. How can I make the CSS link to HTML? Please help!

link tag is :

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

Whereas in css:

  1. To apply the property over element:
  • CSS: p{ color: "RED" }
  • HTML: <p>My name is Donald.</p>
  1. To apply the property over element-id:
  • CSS: #idOfElement{ color: "RED" }
  • HTML: <p id="idOfElement">My name is Donald.</p>
  1. To apply the property over class:
  • CSS: .className{ color: "RED" }
  • HTML: <p class="className">My name is Donald.</p>
