For some reason I can't get my media queries working.... Can someone explain what's going on?
Screen size is at 241 (chrome, ie, ff)
CSS
#media screen and (max-width: 500px)
{
body
{
width: 100%;
background-color: black;
}
#header
{
display: none;
}
}
HTML
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" />
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0">
<title>Test</title>
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" media="screen" href="css/styles.css" />
<link href='http://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Great+Vibes' rel='stylesheet' type='text/css'>
</head>
<body>
<div id="header">
<p>This is my header</p>
</div>
<p>This is a paragraph</p>
</body>
</html>

Double check that your media queries are the last items in your style sheet and are not being overwritten by other applied styles e.g.
<style>
#media screen and (max-width: 500px)
{
body
{
width: 100%;
background-color: black;
}
#header
{
display: none;
}
}
body {background-color: white;}
</style>
the example I've given will never change the background-color of the body element as the styling below the media query will over-ride it
What you have works by itself:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" />
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0">
<style>
#media screen and (max-width: 500px)
{
body
{
width: 100%;
background-color: black;
}
#head
{
display: none;
}
}
</style>
<title>Test</title>
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" media="screen" href="css/styles.css" />
<link href='http://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Great+Vibes' rel='stylesheet' type='text/css'>
</head>
<body>
<div id="head">
<p>This is my header</p>
</div>
<p>This is a paragraph</p>
</body>
</html>
Check if you have any other media queries that might be overriding this one. Otherwise maybe it's a link to your stylesheet that's the issue,

I'm a total beginner at coding and my first problem I can't figure out is that when I use CSS sheet as a change of h1 and h3 color it basically doesn't change.
I tried to set a <h1> text color in CSS sheet and it didn't change.
body {
background-color: #EEEEEE;
}
h1 {
color: blue;
}
h3 {
color: blue;
}
hr {
border-color: grey;
border-style: none;
border-top-style: dotted;
border-width: 5px;
width: 5%;
}
<h1>H1</h1>
<hr/>
<h3>H3</h3>
That's my HTML code:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<head>
<meta charset="UTF-8">
<title>Kacper's Personal Site 💲</title>
<link rel='stylesheet' href='css/styles.css'>
</head>
<body>
<table>
for background color it works properly.
If you have created a separate file of CSS then link your CSS file to an HTML file like <head><link rel="stylesheet" href="style.css"></head>,see here https://www.freecodecamp.org/news/how-to-link-css-to-html/
When you use a separate CSS file, you need to link that CSS file to the html document.
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<meta charset="UTF-8" />
<meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=edge" />
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0" />
<title>Document</title>
<link rel="stylesheet" href="style.css" />
</head>
<body>
<h1>H1</h1>
<hr/>
<h3>H3</h3>
</body>
</html>
Just deleted all the code to be easier to solve it maybe. The body background color is only applied to the elements but not the entire page.
body {
margin: 0;
background: blueviolet;
}
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<meta charset="UTF-8">
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0">
<title>The 2021 Frontend Developer Crash Course</title>
<link rel="stylesheet" href="css/main.css">
</head>
<body>
<h1>mdada</h1>
</body>
</html>
Add body height or min-height
body {
margin: 0;
min-height:100vh;
background: blueviolet;
}
<body>
<h1>mdada</h1>
</body>
css causes some red boxes that cannot be understood.

Is this a bug?
"special" doesn't have any defined meaning in HTML or CSS terms.
*:not(body):not(p) will select all elements that aren't the body or a p including html, head meta, etc.
I want the body of the page to be responsive so that it is easy for the user to read on a mobile site. But when I use this line of code. I get this mess. Any suggestions?

I have written some media queries that do not seem to be working. However when I validate them with W3C it says their are no errors.
Why are my font weights and background colours not changing. My HTML correctly links to my CSS. The following is my CSS:
#media (max-width: 800px) {
body {
background-color: red;
}
h1 {
font-weight: 300;
}
}
#media (min-width: 801px) and (max-width: 1000px) {
body {
background-color: orange;
}
h1 {
font-weight: 600;
}
}
#media (min-width: 1001px) {
body {
background-color: yellow;
}
h1 {
font-weight: 900;
}
}
As requested this is the head:
<head>
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width" />
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8" />
<title>Media Query Test</title>
<link type="text/css" rel="stylesheet" src="css/style.css" />
</head>
Make sure you have this in your head tag:
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width" />

CSS3 media queries not working
Wow!
It is late where I am and I have been looking at my code too long.
The problem was in my head. I was using "src" instead of "href" when trying to link my external CSS.
Worst public shaming ever.
Should read:
<link type="text/css" rel="stylesheet" href="css/style.css">
