@Ben107584 M has told you on two occasions that you must upload `styles.css` to the remote CSS folder.

I will now add: you must upload `styles.css` to the remote CSS folder.

Please do not disappoint.

Wappler is the DMXzone-made Dreamweaver replacement and includes the best of their powerful extensions, as well as much more!

Fix your code errors. You have some critical ones that will cause more problems later.

I am attempting to incorporate these notes you gave me. I believe I corrected the first one accordingly, but would you mind expanding on the others, what they should look like exactly? I am very new to this software and don't always follow the terminology easily...

The problems you're having stem form not knowing enough about HTML code and proper document structure. Suggest you spend a weekend doing code tutorials and then come back to Dreamweaver.

See screenshot.

Start here: Read the chapters, do code exercises and take quizzes at the end.

Also make sure you define your local site folder in DW BEFORE you begin your project. Otherwise, DW cannot manage assets and paths for you. Site > Manage Sites...

Hope that helps.

make sure your code is in order...

the LINK tag is outside the HEAD tag and the H1 tag outside BODY tag
then, make sure you start by creating a site in Dreamweaver to properly work,

and when uploading your files , respect the CSS and IMAGE folders in accordance with the paths to the files related to your HTML file

I think your CSS file is missing from the server. Make sure your styles.css file is uploaded to the server and is in the "css" folder as you have linked it.
