webmachiavelli,
I will be the first to step up and say that Yosemite gave you good "help" in the other thread, and in this one. Regardless of what you want to do, few people are going to be willing to help you until your site is valid, and here's the simplest explanation as to why:
You are in math class. 2 hours before this class, there was an english class in the same room. The English teacher left up all the english notes on the chalkboard.
Your math teacher starts teaching algebra to you. He turns to the chalkboard and starts writing out a huge equation on the chalkboard.
You dont get it.
Why? because the math teacher didnt erase all the english notes off the chalkboard first.
Moral: You need a clean chalkboard.
Having an already valid site when you want to make any sort of major changes, and yes, moving a sidebar is a MAJOR change, insures (for the most part) that something thats broke isnt screwing with what you are attempting to change. It might seem like tedious work now, but it helps heaps on the other side. It also takes the additional burden of fixing other problems off someone that might be willing to help you with **just** the sidebar.. People are to help but you have to be willing to shoulder some burden too.
