1,857 PointsHi ! I think you are mixing up the files index.html and resume.html. There is a good reason for that. When clicking the preview button in the resume.html the bowser opens the index.html Im not sure why. very confusing. when you open the resume.html the line is black as it should be. the line in index.html is white.

1,857 PointsWhich image are we talking about ? The portland.jpg? And you wish to change the image-format i assume? BR Peter

1,857 PointsI found one interesting problem , i dont think it solves the issue at hand. see row 35 to 38
<h3>A New Subsection</h3> <li>To learn more, <a href="resume.html">view my resume.</a></li> </ul> </div>
The closing ul on line 36 is missing a introductory <ul> above.
This makes the listelement invalid since its not allowed within div tags. ( i think - im pretty new at this ...)

727 PointsThanks for the response Peter, I appreciate the time you have taken to look at this.
If you click on the blue box in the top right 'Watch Video' it shows what I'm trying to do.
Essentially, on resume.html line 9 I've typed in the class as "main-image". Then if you click on resume.css if you look at lines 5-8 you will see that I want to put a black solid border around the image and for the image to be circular.
However, the code in my css isn't linking to the html, and therefore the border/circular image isnt happening.#
I was wondering what I'm doing wrong?
Peter Jonsson
1,857 PointsOK great. First 4X is not a valid value. see the link for other options like medium.
https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/CSS/border
Also very near this place you need to have a semicolon where you now have a colon.

727 Pointsah ok! so I've changed to 4px and put a semi colon. It's now circular and has a border, but the border is white?https://w.trhou.se/cormtdvkwe I've even tried writing different colours and its still showing as white?
Peter Jonsson
1,857 Pointswhat if, in the html file you refer your href to resume.css instead of resume.
I believe this is the correct way to do it.
Al Robinson
727 Pointsmade that change, still a white border? https://w.trhou.se/b46h4yep0j
Al Robinson
727 Pointsyeah you're right. surely when I click the preview button on resume.html it should open the resume page? (and not the index.html page?)
Not sure why that is?
I see what you mean re: the border colour too. that issue seems to be sorted, just how to get the resume.html to point to the right page!
Peter Jonsson
1,857 PointsYes, sorry i cant help you there (with the wrong page opening) - i just know some other students encountered the same problem. BR Peter
Al Robinson
727 Pointsthanks for your help so far - hopefully someone else can help on that point?

727 PointsHI chanice, the problem I am having now is that when I click the preview button on resume.html, it is opening index.html. It should be opening resume.html and I'm not sure why.
chanice
747 PointsCan you send a screenshot of your file please. Are you still learning html track?
chanice
747 PointsI found your snapshot, and did a fast test. Well, i could not have time to look all your codes, but i think its a tree workspace error. So when it open to index.html preview, click on Experience link and it will take you to resume.html preview page. I'll look again later and see if your codes are not causing this.
Al Robinson
727 Pointsthanks chanice

747 PointsYou are welcome.

747 PointsHey again, I realized that this problem of opening the new html page preview take you to the old index html page is happening even with the teacher from lesson https://teamtreehouse.com/library/marking-up-a-blog-post. So definitely its treehouse workspace problem or just this happen while coding. If you still didn't reach this lesson, you will see when you reach out this lesson. See you :)
