<3:00 AM: a second year college student trying to get through a bachelors in design: a person who values getting work done and on time: an Intro Interactive Design Class: coding and web design: Adding a .css stylesheet file to a .html file page: it's not sticking:****ing impossible to do: class is early morning tomorrow: I'm doomed!/>

Ouch, sh!t. What way have you been trying to attach the CSS?

If it's in Dreamweaver you may have to edit all of the pages' properties to enable the CSS function.

Um...

<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="yourcssfile.css" />

I've never really seen the point to WYSIWYGs and Dreamweaver. Editing with a light code editor and a few other tools is all that's really needed for web development.

I know what you mean, I do it all by codes myself - just most graphic design classes are being taught to make use of software such as Dreamweaver (considering I ended up teaching IT for a year, I saw that this became the standard across all levels as they consider such software to bring balance among those who have to visually edit and coders).

So I know what you mean Xuro on that.

My class is told not to rely on dream weaver, though "css edit" has been pushed in terms of style-sheet short-cutting. I even got rid of my IE in exchange for firefox... it's weird... Microsoft word pad works just fine for this kind of stuff.

Yes I am aware of the <link, rel, type, href /> in sticking a css style sheet to an html file. Little did I know that the closing ">" HAD to have a space apart from the final text! So luckily I was able to fix it just in time, 20 minutes before class! No late fee or errors for me! *Plays victory fanfare*
Shame I couldn't of found that earlier, else my site would of looked a little less soggy.
