Trouble with Images, and normalize.css

I am currently having this problem:

  • My images are not appearing on the browser.
  • How can I do the exercise of the normalize.css?
  • How can I load that file on the code editor?

The most common issue for those new to web design, is an issue with file paths. So here's a quick primer on file paths that should get you going.

Also depending on your web server, the directories & filename that makes up your path may be case-sensitive. So triple check the spelling and capitalization of the the path.

In the code challenge you don't need to use normalize.css that's already taken care of for you.

On the other hand if you are following along with the project ...

How to add normalize.css:

  1. Go to normalize.css file from github
  2. Click the big green download button
  3. Save the file to your desktop
  4. Move the normalize.css file in your sublime text project folder
  5. Create a link element that references normalize.css

This works the same way as an <a> by using the href attribture. Make sure to use the right path for the normalize.css file here as well.

The code exercises only require you to type the text as it appears in the question.

If you click into the code editor directly the preloaded text should appear and once your HTML is typed it will be reflected on the right hand side.
