Hi there. I am new to xml

Why is it that my browser doesn't display the style i mentioned in the css and just displays it as a plain text like this.

Code:

Joe Marini 232322 2321111232 42-232322 abcd@gmail.com

Here are my codes

The document is in the same folder and the files are test.xml and testcss.css

Code:

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<?xml-stylesheet type="text/css" herf="testcss.css"?>
<BusinessCard>
	<name>Joe Marini</name>
	<phone type="mobile">232322</phone>
	<phone type="work">2321111232</phone>
	<phone type="fax">42-232322</phone>
	<email>abcd@gmail.com</email>
</BusinessCard>

and my css

Code:

BusinessCard {
	font-family:Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
	background-color:#DACFE5;
	width: 300px;
	display:block;
	padding:1px solid #0D3427;
	margin:5px;
	text-align: left;
}

Name {
	color:#0D3427;
	font-weight: bold;
	font-size:140%;
	display:block;
	margin-bottom: 3%;
}

phone {
	font-size: 90%;
	color: #523819;
	font-size:90%;
	display:block;
}
email {
	color: #0D3427;
	font-size: 90%;
	font-weight: bold;
	display:block;
	margin-bottom: 3%;
}

Code:

<?xml-stylesheet type="text/css" herf="testcss.css"?>

because the attribute is named href.

PS. you don’t have a Name element in your XML.

Also worth noting that 1px solid #0D3427 is not a valid value for the padding property.
