   Greetings,

   I hacked a theme and added a left column for a total of three. I have a very pesky left margin of about 40px in that colunm that I can't connect to any CSS command. If I add this to the colunm definiton: right-margin: -40px; the text lines up correctly, but that is really tacky as I must then increase the size of the left column to get the page layout back on track.

   Things I have done:

   * Checked the wrapper definition CSS
   * Searched the style sheet for the number 40(!)
   * Added a text widget to confirm that this is not a UL definition issue (and it's not)
   * Disabled the column to see if the margin might apply to any left side column (it does not - only to the one I added).
   * Much fiddling with the style sheet which, although it produced many interesting results, never touched my 40px left margin.

   Ok. Here it is online:

   Notice how the headingd of the lists of links crown in against the center column. I would like to push them back to the left, but they won't budge.

   Thanks
