<link href =\'assets/style.css\' type=\'text/css\' rel=\'stylesheet\'/>' Works like that
-
I am attempting to learn Node.js, I hope someone here knows it. var express=require('express'); var app=express(); var port=process.env.PORT||3000; app.use('/assets', express.static(__dirname+'/public')); I require express and next line create and instantiate a var app then next line I do the same for var port last line I 'believe' I am causing express to look in my public file when I use the var assets in a line of code later, will show line app.get('/',function(req,res) { res.send('<html><head>' +'<link href=assets/style.css type=text/css rel=stylesheet/>' +'<title> 9/3 </title></head><body><h1>Hello World!</h1><h2>' +'Using Express to make my life easier</hr></body></html>'); }); Here I am creating a HTML page for localhost:3000 , because 3000 is the default port as shown above. Everything works save the following line +'<link href=assets/style.css type=text/css rel=stylesheet/>' I cannot get the css3 to work yet I 'believe' the link is correct, the word assets in the link tag should be dynamically changed to public causing the NODE.JS server to use the style.css file IE /public/style.css I see no style change at all and when I look at the source code this is the line printed <link href="/assest/style.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" > I do not know but I thought it would be localhost:3000/public/style.css below is the CSS body{color: red;} which as I said is ni the public folder which is in the same folder as the app.js holding the code in question What am I doing wrong that will not use the CSS? Thanks
