This was the most challenging assignment yet. I wasn't able to get it successfully running on Dreamhost. So I ended up putting it on Zephir. Once on Zephir, I couldn't get it to incorporate the css. I tried using the "get_html" method as well as the standard style tag with URL@. I put the CSS in a number of different folders and it still doesn't work. I have tried entering the path absolutely and relatively and it still doesn't work. Everything else still seems to be working, but I don't feel great about. I feel like the assignment was very confusing and I felt unclear about what I was even doing. More than anything I just feel like my code is now a big mess with a lot of foreign stuff I dumped into it and I don't really understand a lot of it.
I think my big issue with making this assignment work in Dreamhost was that I don't understand how to refer to files that are stored outside of the root, like header_inc and footer_inc. While I see how this is done with Zephir I wasn't successfull in translating to Dreamhost.
I'm going to listen to the lecture again and re-read the lesson, but I think I really need help with this. I re-did the assignment several times and feel a little lost.
