    you have lots of validation errors. like wrongly closed <div>s etc.

    also, in the style.css - all the styles for the class .sidebar need to have the dot infront of the word sidebar: (for instance)
    .sidebar { float: right; width: 290px; margin: 0; padding: 0; }

    you can copy the code of your php files , using a pastebin and then post the link to it here for the forum to have a look at it.
    you probably need to post header.php, index.php, and sidebar.php.

    and sometimes it helps to print everything out and work on paper ;-) to check the proper closing of all divs.

    Your sidebar isn't in a div. You need
    <div class-'sidebar'> before your sidebar and
    </div> after your sidebar.

    Hi everyone,
    I have pretty much solved it but now I'm having issues with my second dynamic sidebar containing the calender widget. It won't accept my CSS style like sidebar one has. Instead it has a mind of it's own and has positioned itself to the right!
    Any help?
