My CSS file is not defining my basic HTML file. Help!!

[Unregistered]

How do I determine if my CSS file is properly linked to my HTML file without the use of Dreamweaver? How would I test with Dreamweaver? What's the difference between an HTML text editor and Dreamweaver? I tested my HTML file by simply opening it up in Firefox, and it worked! But it did not take on the style of my CSS file, bad. Can someone help me?

We've mostly used external CSS files, and included them like this:
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="/include/css/style.css">

The HREF part just needs to be a relative or absolute path to the file, just like you would do for linking to another HTML file or including an image with an IMG tag.

If you could post the URL for the site we could take a look.

Is there an in-person service that could help me with future html questions? Could I go to the the oscr underground? where else?

Thanks,

It would probably be best to start with one of the Multimedia Labs (http://oscr.arizona.edu/multimedia), or look for people who are rated high in Dreamweaver (http://www.oscr.arizona.edu/software_detail?software_id=61), and try and meet up with them when they're on duty.
