Alexander Bromage
Courses Plus Student 4,014 PointsNormalize.css problems
I have downloaded the project file to add normalise.css in lesson include external css. My mac auto-unzips and I have added the file to my structure and put the link tag in and checked the code several times but none of the format changes occur in my preview. I have re-downloaded and added the file several times to no change. When I look into normalize.css there are several parts of the code highlighted red. Could this suggest a bad unzip? Or bad file?
Thanks

It's normal at this point to still have the bullets for the gallery. You'll remove them later.
The version of normalize used in the project only removes the bullet points from lists within a nav
element. The gallery list isn't inside a nav element.
For future reference, the newest version of normalize doesn't remove any bullets.

a) cache b) a bad link c) the order in which the css is being applied (you usually want normalize to load first)
Try checking that you are linking to the right CSS file, if that doesn't solve it, then empty the browser cache

Courses Plus Student 4,014 PointsHi Miguel
Thanks for the quick reply. Checked what you suggested and no luck. Some of the elements are now updated based on the comment I left above. Any other thoughts?
Thanks

Courses Plus Student 4,014 PointsI went into my Trash and retrieved the original zip file. Manually unzipped it and used that normalise.css file. When that was added the bullet points on the unordered list at the top of the page disappeared, but the bullet points next to the images did not even though that is an unordered list as well.
I will continue with the lessons but if someone could help me with this I would really appreciate it!
