I've followed the steps to linking the normalize.css file but when I view my page in the browser it looks the same??

Hi Chris,

The line where you link your HTML to the normalize.css has a mistake in it.

<link rel="stylesheet" href="css/normalize-css">

should be

<link rel="stylesheet" href="css/normalize.css">

thank you, problem solved much appreciated!
