How to link same-directory CSS file and HTML file?












-1















I am trying to figure out how to link my style.css file on my index.html.



The style.css file is in the same folder as my index.html file and this is how I'm trying to reference my css file as follows but it's not working:



<link href="aplusryan.github.io/style.css" type="text/css" rel="stylesheet" />

          Since your style.css file is in the same folder as your index.html, just use ./ instead of the full url to reference your stylesheet like this:



          <link href="./style.css" type="text/css" rel="stylesheet" />





          The dot-slash "./" is a relative path to something in the current
          directory. The dot is the current directory and the slash is a path
          delimiter.

            If your index and style sheet are in the same folder then the link should just be "style.css" you don't need the GitHub part.



            If you put your stylesheet in a folder called css, and the CSS folder is the same level as index.html then you would link with "css/style.css"
