   My website, by default, shows the sidebar on the right, and it overlaps the header. What I would like is for the sidebar to be on the left, nested underneath the header.
   In the interest of saving space, I have the index.php and the .css listed as text files on the site:

   If there is something else that needs tweaking, let me know and I'll post it.

   #menu
   top: 0;
   Change it to something like top: 102px;
   The px is the vertical gap between the top of the screen and the start of the div.

   It's there for you, and you can see the result at http://www.tamba2.org.uk/testblog/index.php
   If you compare what you've got, and what you see.. changes to #menu and #content :)

   Well, that accomplished what I was looking to do (much thanks to you, BTW.)
   However, the unexpected result is that the sidebar now is sitting smack dab on top of the posts, instead of sitting to the immediate left of the posts as I was expecting it to. Is there a fix for this, or should I just write up a table layout for it all? I'd rather not do that if there's an easier way to accomplish this, but I'm not above doing it if that's going to take care of the problem. :-)

   My fault!
   It's fixed. I forgot to save the changes when I altered the #content section. Looks good.
   Thanks again for the help, and especially for the quick response.
