I need someone to take a look at my CSS - it's not loading properly. What am I doing wrong??

I've been following carefully and have had really good success up until now. Suddenly anything I do is not loading. Can someone please take a look and tell me what I've done wrong?

It was suggested on an earlier question that I try a different browser. I've tried 2 others and still nothing different. It seems like my site is frozen and just won't respond to any changes I make in the code. And it just started while working on the Contact page.

First - I want no bullet styling "list-style: none;" but it keeps the bullets.

Now when loading icons, which are correctly loaded into my img folder, nothing happens.

/******************** PAGE: CONTACT ********************/

.contact-info { list-style: none; padding: 0; margin: 0; font-size: 0.9em; }

.contact-info li.phone a { background-image: url('../img/phone.png') }

.contact-info li.mail a { background-image: url('../img/mail.png') }

I see that you are forgeting to put a semicolon after you url images.

.contact-info li.phone a { background-image: url('../img/phone.png'); }

.contact-info li.mail a { background-image: url('../img/mail.png'); }

Maer,

Check your folder structure and your relative path URLs. Without knowing this it's hard to troubleshoot for you; it's possible you are referencing them incorrectly.

Cheers!
