Can anyone help me with my HTML/ CSS question?

Question

Ok, so I have recently been making a little HTML and CSS site on my mac, just for fun, but I would have continued to do so, but my html and css is messing up with my style sheet.
__________________________________________
Here is the html:












Hello and welcome to Harrison Enterprises!




________________________________
CSS:
/* Main Style Sheet For Harrison Enterprises index.html */

body.one {
color: red;
font-family: Arial;
font-weight: bold;
}

Thanks if you can figure out my problem!
Please leave as much info about the problem in the comment. :)

Answer 1

Don't need a CSS selector name such as "body.one". Sufficient to just set CSS rules with "body". NO character encoding meta tag. Suggest you use hex color codes.

How is it messing up your with your style sheet? It displays properly for me. Just make sure that your css file called stylemain does not have an file extension.



That is what says look for a file called stylemain not stylemain.css or stylemain.txt, just plain old stylemain with no extension.

OK So you are using a MAC. Can I assume you are using Safari? Then you will want to look into HTML 5. You will use a much simpler doctype and CSS will be easier and more powerful.



look at this link.
