If you made a change to your style sheet and your webpage does not reflect that change, check:
- Did you refresh your browser? You may have to
clear your browser's cache.
- Did you save your changes before uploading your css file?
- Did you upload your css file to the correct folder?
- Did you edit and upload the same file?
- On your computer, check the location to where you saved your file. And ...
- Check the location from where you are uploading that file to the server?
- Did you accidentally save your css file with a different name? Look closely!
For example, can you tell the difference between
these file names?
- Check the layout of your styles, the layout of the
html
to which you are applying the styles and the spelling of the
styles and values.
- Are you using inline and/or internal styles? If so, remember that an inline style will over-ride
internal styles and styles within an external style sheet. Also, internal style will
over-ride styles in an external style sheet.
- Are you actually viewing the correct file?
