Make sure you have targeted your style sheet as above... where it says mystyle.css must correspond with what ever you named your style sheet. also make sure the code is as this code with correct spelling, spacing etc.
 
I personally add a single closing tag for my <link> tag. For example,

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

Also, the href= is case sensitive. So if your folder is 'Style' then you go to 'Style'. Also, this selects from your index page. So if your index page isn't in the same folder as 'style' then it's going to need additional path parameters.


Other then that inkpad.t has told you what you needed to look at.

It's not just brackets, as you have styles in brackets, but no rule name before them, so a browser won't know what elements to style.
What are you doing this in may I ask?

I think you really need to go to w3school for a couple of hours, and you will understand the way CSS is put together, as the stuff you have done so far needs redoing completely. The link provided will direct you to all you need to know and more. Good Luck.
 
You've also misspelled mainmenu in the css code...

If you still can't link the css to the html. Add <style></style> to the html, just below the title and add your css there. Not good practice, but still works.
 
First is, try this W3C CSS Validation, then you can perhaps optimize and format you CSS by using this site, it's a bit messy.

And then make sure the path is correct, better use softwares like Dreamweaver in creating webpages.
 
Why are people still answering this, when the only problem here, is the person doesn't have a clue about css in the first place?

The first thing they need to do is learn how to do css, not to validate the rubbish posted here. A link to tutorials has been given. It isn't even that hard for somebody with a tiny bit of intelligence to Google how to do css, then an hour latter, be able to do css.

If somebody is so ridiculously stupid that they can't use Google, how do you suspect they will validate and optimize code?
