Wont link with index.css.

<head>
    <meta chrset= "utf-8">
    <title>Derin Bali | Writer</title>
  <link rel="stylesheet" href"css/normalize.css">
  <link rel="stylesheet" href"css/main.css">
 </head>

I believe the code is correct. I did go into my browser's developer tools to see if it is picking up the sources for my links and there are two items listed there. Index,my main file, and a folder named img. So.....yeah. Help?

Hi Derin,

I noticed you are missing your = sign after your href on both attempts to link a stylesheet.

Try

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

No worries, you code wasn't wrong, you just had omitted some syntax that created the error. I do it all the time myself. It's an incredibly common problem...just wait until you have to hunt down the missing ; in a javascript file! :)
