If you linking your about page to an another page(like index.html) make sure on your index page where your links are, you substituted the '#' with about.html
Caleb King
32,777 PointsLaksakan Krishnapillai can you copy and post your code snippet from the index.html and about.html(if you do not know how to do this yet, watch the tips for asking questions on the right hand side of the forum for instructions).

Courses Plus Student 1,839 PointsHow do i paste the code the way you have?
Caleb King
32,777 Pointswatch the "tips for asking questions" videos to the right.
Laksakan Krishnapillai
Courses Plus Student 1,839 PointsThe link is below of the code of the HTML and CSS. Maybe there is something wrong with the server? code seems to be correct.
Caleb King
32,777 PointsMake sure your index.html and about.html page are within the same directory.
