   Hi riteshnishar,

   I took a look at this for you with the Firebug extension in Firefox. I found that the width of the sidebar is controlled by this id selector in the style sheet:

   #secondary

   You may also need to adjust the width of this id selector in the style sheet as well to allow for the sidebar to be that wide:

   #primary

   Hope this helps!

   some one told me to change this:
   

   #primary {
   float: left;
   margin: 0 -29.4% 0 0;
   width: 100%;
   }
   
   #secondary {
   float: left;
   margin-right: 0.6%;
   width: 300px;
   }

   but its not working !

   Hi riteshnishar,

   You will want to reduce the width of primary. Try this in your style sheet:

   #primary {
   float: left;
   margin: 0 -29.4% 0 0;
   width: 90%;
   }

   #secondary {
   float: left;
   width: 300px;
   }

   Hope this helps!
