Can anyone help me understand how to build a web page with visual studio because the html works but the CSS doesnt apply

Its like the files dont work together and its very confusing

What does your link tag in the html look like?

<link />

idk is this is what you meant im new to html

In the head element of the html you should link to your css like:

<link rel="stylesheet" href="file-name.css">

Let me know if this helps here

If you're using a preview tool, make sure the page has updated.

Went through a similar situation with debugging CSS, exhausting all the possibilities and it was something this simple.

If you screenshot your UI it would help tremendously. Upload with http://imgur.com

ya, its hard to tell what the issue could be based on the info given so far.

Are you using Visual Studio or Visual Studio Code? If you're a beginner VS Code would be easier for you to use.
