HTML How to Make a Website Adding Pages to a Website Add Iconography

Still getting bullet points not icons, what am I doing wrong?!

I swear I have scoured my code over and over again and downloaded Nick's code to compare side by side and I cannot figure out what I'm doing wrong. I see others have had the same problem but I checked the things that they used to resolve the issue and it didn't fix it for me. Here is my snapshot- https://w.trhou.se/pivpcktr9w

You have a little typo in your ul class and you need to mind the case of your class names so that it matches your CSS. 

<ul class-"Contact-Info">
          <li class="Phone"><a href="tel:208-340-1895">208-340-1895</a></li>
          <li class="Mail"><a href="mailto:boisefacepainting@gmail.com">boisefacepainting@gmail.com</a></li>
          <li class="Twitter"><a href="http://twitter.com/intent/tweet?screen_name=boisefacepaintr">@boisefacepaintr</a></li>
</ul>

Fix those issues and you should be good :)

Hi Stacia,

There are a couple of things you need to fix:

  1. You should generally always use lowercase letters in your class names as these can be case sensitive in different situations. So the class names in html should match those in CSS, and at the minute they don't.
  2. You have used a - instead of a = on line 31 of contact.html. It should read <ul class="contact-info">

Overall your html code should look like this...

<ul class="contact-info">
  <li class="phone"><a href="tel:208-340-1895">208-340-1895</a></li>
  <li class="mail"><a href="mailto:boisefacepainting@gmail.com">boisefacepainting@gmail.com</a></li>
  <li class="twitter"><a href="http://twitter.com/intent/tweet?screen_name=boisefacepaintr">@boisefacepaintr</a></li>
</ul>

Notice the CSS class names are all lower case and match what you have in the CSS file.

Hope this makes sense :)
