Question

How do I run the CSS file?

Community Answer

CSS files are stylesheets that extend HTML pages with styles. They are not able to be run, but must be specified as links in a tag.

You should make a folder called My Webs on your computer under My Documents. Make a Folder in My Webs that matches your Account Name, such as hippos. Under hippos (folder), make sub folders for your website, such as images. Then, put your css (file extension) file loose (no folder) under hippos. Same with all your html (file extension) files for your webpages, except if you want to sort them by subjects in sub folders. Being organized from the beginning will make it much easier as your site grows.

Filezilla is a free program for FTP (File Transfer Protocol). You'll need pieces of info from your Host to set up Filezilla.
