header { border-bottom: 5px solid #DF3A01 margin-bottom: 60px; } I can't see my border?

responsive.css

I added a boarder code and it's not showing up? Could in be a problem in my main.css coding or my index.html ?

perhaps you didn't close your border declaration:

header { border-bottom: 5px solid #DF3A01; margin-bottom: 60px; }

You have left out the semi-colon ( ; ) at the end of the 'border-bottom' declaration to close it.

Can you copy and paste the formatted code? Click the markdown cheatsheet link below the comment box to see how to format. You'll use ``` before and after the code to make it more readable.

Need more info. in order to help.

*Have you used firebug or developer tool to inspect the element?
*What are you trying to do?

  • How about providing us both the css and the html in codepen?
  • Is this a WP site ? bootstrap?

If the code you have in your title here is reflective of what you have in your css, you should revisit your syntax:

element { border-bottom: 1px solid #000; margin-bottom: xxx;

}
