    I moved the sidebar of my theme from right to left, but i now wish to add a 2nd sidebar on the right. I am currently stuck with the side bar at the bottom of the page. Could anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong? Thanks in advance.

    I tried adding margin-left: to right side bar to push it over, as i did with orginal move, but it still stays at bottom.

    what you are doing wrong is basically 2 things :
    1. you have 2 (yes, two) content divs nested one inside the other, but same id)
    2. your css code is full of errors, which makes it very difficult for the browser to understand what you want, mainly because you have a lot of not closed rules, one of which , at line 339 more or less, regards also your sidebar (among others)
