Please help, i really cannot see what i am doing wrong. I have tried all permutations and still cannot link so have started to write css code in html. Not what i want to do. Been looking at it too long and hoping someone can see my error. Thnks
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<meta charset="utf-8">
<link href="css/style.css" type="text/css" rel="stylesheet">
</head>
My file tree is my directory folder name of the project then a sub folder css, then the style.css
Assuming your index file is in the root directly below the css file, you need to write "./css/style.css" - you're definitely not pointing to the right location.
<link href="./css/style.css" type="text/css" rel="stylesheet">
Try This:
<link href="../css/style.css" type="text/css" rel="stylesheet">
OR
<link href="/ProjectName/css/style.css" type="text/css" rel="stylesheet">
If you want to link to your stylesheet and it is not working, navigate to your stylesheet (it should look like http://www.example.com/css/style.css) and then copy the URL to your <link rel="stylesheet"> tag so it looks like this:
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="http://www.example.com/css/style.css">
instead of this:
<link href="css/style.css" type="text/css" rel="stylesheet">
Hope this helps!

This is my structure
I'm trying to load the main.css file from the header.ejs file, can't find it.
This code is in my header file:
<!DOCTYPE html> <html>
<head>
<title>Hello and wellcome to my album</title>
<link type="text/css" rel="stylesheet" href="https://maxcdn.bootstrapcdn.com/bootstrap/4.0.0/css/bootstrap.min.css">
<link type="text/css" rel="stylesheet" href="../../public/stylesheets/main.css">
</head>
<body>
Try to go 2 directories back, not 1.
Like this:
<link type="text/css" rel="stylesheet" href="../../public/stylesheets/main.css">
Link should be like below cause you have 2 sub folder back then you will get public folder and stylesheets
<link type="text/css" rel="stylesheet" href="../../public/stylesheets/main.css">
Try
<link type="text/css" rel="stylesheet" href="../../public/stylesheets/main.css">
.. selects the parent directory from the current.
(..) 2 times because first, you need to go 2 directories back and then go to public and then stylesheet and then main.css
in app.js i added:
app.use(express.static("public"));
in the header.ejs i changed:
<link type="text/css" rel="stylesheet" href="stylesheets/main.css">
i am using NodeJS
The problem is that your stylesheet path is set wrong.
<!DOCTYPE html> <html>
<head>
<title>Hello and wellcome to my album</title>
<link type="text/css" rel="stylesheet" href="https://maxcdn.bootstrapcdn.com/bootstrap/4.0.0/css/bootstrap.min.css">
<link type="text/css" rel="stylesheet" href="../../public/stylesheets/main.css">
</head>
<body>
You are pointing just a folder up from partials to views. You need anothe folder up to your site root dir just like I pointed. Generally you could just use /public/stylesheets/main.css which is directly pointing to project root folder
This is a nodejs app, path should be like following.
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="/stylesheets/main.css" />
If your path static:
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="stylesheets/main.css" />
I initially was loading a page
somePage
And the index.html would render with styling
<head>
..
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="app/themes/basic_themes/blabla/base_theme/bootstrap.min.css">
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="app/themes/defaults/generated.css">
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="app/themes/basic_themes/blabla/generated.css">
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="app/themes/brands/blabla/generated.css">
<script src="/js/libs/jquery.min.js"></script>
</head>
The above code works fine in production. However someone made some changes and deleted the app folder and refactored the code to this:
somePage
And the index.html to
<head>
..
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="themes/basic_themes/blabla/base_theme/bootstrap.min.css">
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="themes/defaults/generated.css">
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="themes/basic_themes/blabla/generated.css">
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="themes/brands/blabla/generated.css">
<script src="/js/libs/jquery.min.js"></script>
</head>
Now index.html cannot find the css styling. I tried different relative and absolute paths but nothing seems to work.
Any help?
EDIT: My folder structure is:
When I load my page localy http://localhost:56071/blabla/en/ and then click to navigate to "somePage" I end up on http://localhost:56071/tos/blabla/en/ a page with text and no styling. However, if I try to navigate to http://localhost:56071/themes/basic_themes/blabla/base_theme/bootstrap.min.css it returns a 404. BUT I can access my .css file through this link http://localhost:56071/blabla/en/themes/basic_themes/blabla/base_theme/bootstrap.min.css Can someone explain whats happening here?
I have a index.html file which has this file structure: fl/contact/thanks/index.html
My CSS folder has this file structure: fl/css/style.css
How can i target the style.css file so it affects the index.html file with the current file structure?
This is what it's currently set to:
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="css/style.css">
If you are on a server, you could do this:
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="/css/style.css">
This assumes that 'fl' is the root.
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="../../css/style.css">
each ".." for the upper layer of the path.
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="../../../css/style.css" />
That should be your new path for index.html.
You should be able to reference it like this:
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="../../css/style.css">
You would be able to do it like this:
Updated answer
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="../../css/style.css" />
I typed the below code in the section of the HTML. However, the CSS code and the bootstrap is not being recognised by the HTML.
<link href="C:\Users\Robert\Desktop\Websites\public_html\Main.css" rel="stylesheet">
<link rel="stylesheet" href="C:\Users\Robert\Desktop\bootstrap-3.3.4-dist\css\bootstrap.css">
<link rel="stylesheet" href="Main.css">
What am I doing wrong pls?
You can find this answer very easy by using google.
I would do the following. Create on your desktop a directory website. In this directory create a directory called "css", "js", "img". Create in the directory "website" index.html and enter this in the document:
<head>
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="css/bootstrap.css">
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="css/main.css">
</head>
Try making a container in your html file like:
<div class="container">
some text...
</div>
Use inspect element in firefox and you can see if your browser reads your css file.
I have a problem where my css does not affect my html. I made a fiddle here
It worked when I wasn't trying to connect an external stylesheet and used style tags,
Thanks in advance to anyone who can help.
btw i tried
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="index.css">
and it did not work.
Make sure you are linking it in your 'head' section of the HTML such as this:
<head>
<link href="index.css" type="text/css" rel="stylesheet" />
</head>
Also be sure to close the tag and that the style sheet you are linking is named 'index.css'
Edit:
HTML is split up into two main section tags: body and head. In a normal HTML page, the structure is like so:
<html>
<head>
</head>
<body>
</body>
</html>
The code I referenced at the beginning of this answer should be placed into the head section of the HTML page.
The fact that you are linking to simply index.css worries me. Is index.css in your site root? If so, specify that:
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="/index.css">
As stated also by BuddhistBeast, check to make sure it's in between the head tags:
<head>
<link href="index.css" type="text/css" rel="stylesheet" />
</head>
Also check that you are referencing it correctly. If it is all in one folder, then
<link href="index.css" type="text/css" rel="stylesheet" />
is correct.
If it's in its own folder, named "css" for example, it should be written as:
<link href="css/index.css" type="text/css" rel="stylesheet" />
You put #button instead of input, #button in the css.
