vekija, thanks a ton for your help!! I added echo in front of all 4 of the lines in nav_menu.cpt. I was immediately able to see the style sheets kick in; however, when I look at page source, it still doesn't show those files in the page header and is not displaying correctly. Am I using the <?php e($scripts_for_layout); ?> correctly? Does it have to go before/after a certain point in the header?
