   I modified this one theme as I transferred FTP-Blogger site to WordPress. Everything went fine and worked. Also after many nights of editing CSS and PHP files. But then all the sudden when I went to homepage the layout started to look very bad with right side column dropped down. It is 3 column layout and 100% CSS valid with no errors.

   Note that the problem only occurs in homepage, and when browsing << older or newer >> posts but not when clicking on to specific post, archive lists or categories. Look and try by your self...

   Please any ideas? Heres the address:

   Few things that I already tried after searching help from here and with Google:

   - I removed few widgets for a moment to check if they or their content causes column to act weird. No results.

   - I looked from theme PHP files for open div tags but I didn't find.

   - Also I tried to check if there are too wide images in posts. Nope.

   - Then I looked for overlappings from CSS. Nope.

   Or am I blind (tired)? I tried various things and now I really need some new aspects, thanks!!

   could be, but there are html validation errors: http://validator.w3.org/check?uri=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.sitruunapuu.net%2Fblog&charset=%28detect+automatically%29&doctype=Inline&group=0

   there is indeed one closing div missing; probably at the end of index.php before the call of sidebar.

   just needs very careful checking the div opening/closing order.
   it helps to label the closing divs with the name of the class or id of the div (using html coment) to keep track:
   for instance:
   

   <div class="post">
   blablablablb
   </div> <!-- end of .post -->

   Thanks! It was that closing div in index.php. Now it looks just great. And your idea using html comments is great too but I wish the author of the template would have done it while coding :/
