some of css stylesheet is not loading - html

Question

My CSS stylesheet loads almost all the contents but it is not loading my CSS for button. It's strange because all other things are working fine. I use opera. I have posted the CSS below which is not loading, also how I load the CSS.
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="/style.css">
.button {
background-color: #22a4a3b5;
border: none;
color: white;
padding: 4px 14px;
text-align: center;
text-decoration: none;
display: inline-block;
font-size: 17px;
margin: 0px 2px;
cursor: pointer;
}
JS fiddle https://jsfiddle.net/hpsj2e0L/
It works fine in the fiddle but not in my site.

Answer 1

The problem with your code is that you are writing CSS inside your HTML file without wrapping it into a <style> tag. Like this:
<style>
.button, button {
background-color: #22a4a3b5;
border: none;
color: white;
padding: 4px 14px;
text-align: center;
text-decoration: none;
display: inline-block;
font-size: 17px;
margin: 0px 2px;
cursor: pointer;
}
</style>
also, you don't need both selectors if you are applying the style to a <button> you can just use button.
.button is only necessary if you are going to apply it as a class like in <div class="button"></div>

Answer 2

Check other style files to button class. Try give the different class name or load your style file later than others.

Answer 3

make sure you put your css in style tag or in css file
<style>
.button, button {
background-color: #22a4a3b5;
border: none;
color: white;
padding: 4px 14px;
text-align: center;
text-decoration: none;
display: inline-block;
font-size: 17px;
margin: 0px 2px;
cursor: pointer;
}
</style>
also check if you have .button class in your html or maybe its button tag
