 * I’ve just uploaded a new, custom theme to find that the container is a fraction
   of the intended width, and the sections below the home section(this is one single
   page, long site utilizing ids/anchors to navigate) are no longer showing.
    I 
   turned on DEBUG to see if I could spot the problem, and after deactivating problematic
   plugins, I’m left with this error:
 * >  Notice: wp_enqueue_style was called incorrectly. Scripts and styles should
   > not be registered or enqueued until the wp_enqueue_scripts, admin_enqueue_scripts,
   > or init hooks. Please see Debugging in WordPress for more information. (This
   > message was added in version 3.3.) in /home/achenn/public_html/frshstudio.com/
   > wp-includes/functions.php on line 2959
 * Problem is, the only thing on that particular line is:
    `trigger_error( sprintf(
   __( '%1$s was called <strong>incorrectly</strong>. %2$s %3$s' ), $function, $
   message, $version ) );`
 * I’ve seen other [blog posts](http://www.matthewbredel.com/1673/wp-plugin-error-wp_enqueue_style-was-called-incorrectly.html)
   and forums, but the line they are telling me to search for is non-existent in
   this file, much less on the given line.
 * Any tips, ideas, etc on how to remedy this challenge are greatly appreciated.
   Thanks.

 * After speaking with a friend, I now believe the error is somewhere in the javascript
   I’m using, but I’m not sure exactly what’s going on as I’m still very new to 
   incorporating javascript.
