1,416 PointsThe CSS added for the contact page is not working. I am unable to find what the problem is.
I've downloaded the css and html code that accompanies this lesson and am unable to find what I am doing wrong.

1,416 PointsIt's working now. This is the second time there was a huge lag time, hours between the time I wrote the code and when it showed up correctly.
Thanks to anyone who took the time to look over my code.

Courses Plus Student 18,830 PointsHave you altered the code already and are thus having problems with what you've changed? Or are you having an issue with linking the css to the html? If possible, please share your code.
