Newbie problem with linking stylesheet

[terjemk]

Hi!

I am trying to code my very first html document from scratch and link an external stylesheet to it. After several hours trying to figure it out I need some help. No matter what I do I can not get the styles to effect my html file. When I post the html and css over at codepen, the styles are implemented. See: https://codepen.io/Terjemk/pen/BqOMqK

I have set up my files in a folder called “test” where I have put the style.css in a folder called “css” and the image in a folder called “img”. The html file itself is in the top level folder “test”

What am I doing wrong?

Sounds like a path issue.

Codepen resolves these automatically so it’s not a good example.

Hi

I found the answer:

I had forgotten the closing bracket on the title element.
