Wrong Website Loading

I have multiple html files that refer to the same CSS file. However, when I run any of them, only one of the four shows up in the new tab, no matter which file I run.

Can you elaborate a bit more?

What are the files called? How are you calling the CSS file?

I have a file called index.html and cloneindex.html , and they both use normalize.css and main.css.

They refer to two CSS files, actually:

<link rel="stylesheet" href="CSS/normalize.css"> <link rel="stylesheet" href="CSS/main.css">

This shows up in two of the four.

"They refer to two CSS files, actually:

Two of the four what?

From what I understand you have 4 files: index.html cloneindex.html main.css normalize.css

Both index.html and cloneindex.html run main.css and normalize.css

Correct? Not sure what the problem is. Please elaborate.

I just figured it out; the browser only shows the code that is in index.html... right?
