Stylesheet.css not updating

The basics first:
I'm using Zencart v1.3.9h. I haven't upgraded, it was just installed a few days ago. I don't have any add-ons installed. I'm creating a custom template, and until today, I was having no issues modifying the stylesheet.css. I just threw some basic stuff up there for now, so I could work on the other parts until I was ready to design the template.

I've searched the FAQs and google for a solution to my problem, and tried whatever I could come across. None of those have worked, so I'm turning here.

I use GoDaddy for hosting, and recently switched from Windows hosting to Linux hosting. Upon doing so, I deleted my old installation of Zencart, and started fresh.

This is the issue:
Today, I wanted to start on the design aspect of my cart so I can get it live, and continue to add products to it while allowing customers to order from products I've already set up. I created the new images, uploaded them to the templates/custom/images folder. I editted my stylesheet to change the background color to a black, instead of a green, and uploaded the new stylesheet to templates/custom/css. I saw no changes. So, I switched to the classic template, and that worked fine, so I switched back to my custom template, and it was still the old stylesheet. I tried deleting the old stylesheet, and uploading the new stylesheet, and it still doesn't work. I tried renaming the .htacess files to .htaccess_OFF and still doesn't work. I'm at a loss.

Aside from deleting the entire custom template and starting over, what can I do? Am I missing something really simple?

Also, when pulling up the source code and reading the stylesheet source, it's showing the hex code for the green.

However, when logging into my ftp server, and looking at that same source code, it's showing black as the background color. Same if I log into godaddy and use their webFTP.

Re: Stylesheet.css not updating

I'm starting to think it's an error on the hosting company's end, because I uploaded a new header_bg.jpg image, overwriting the old one(same filename) and it hasn't updated either.

I've tried using both Filezilla, and godaddy's in-browser ftp, and nothing is changing.

Re: Stylesheet.css not updating

Disregard, I figured it out.
