    the links should be showing up navy blue as I set them in the style.css file but it's not showing that on the page

    Any help would be appreciated

    No idea what you're talking about - the a-tags are set to #444, and there is nothing assigned to them under nav li a - only on hover and active. Learn to CSS, please. (Also, you have a gazillion CSS-files - why?)

    The links change color when you hover on them, they used to appear light blue, I changed the hex code to navy blue and now they show green. I checked the hex code on other plain HTML files and it worked fine.

    The reason it's so messy with so many times is because I'm copying it over from a layout I made years ago and haven't touched since. I haven't quite cleaned it up yet, but this seems like a simple issue I just can't find the solution.

    If you use Firefox, you can hit F12 to bring up the Web Developer Tools and see what CSS rules apply to a particular element. Firefox indicates that your hover color including the bottom border color is set on line 1300 of your CSS file. It is set to #055916.

    
.navbar .nav li a:hover,
.navbar .nav li.active a {
background: none;
color: #055916;
border-bottom: 2px solid #055916;
}
    Code (markup):
    Is that what you are talking about? There is no real content on the page so I am guessing.
