    The sidebar on my website has some major issues going on. Most of the widgets are not showing up at all, and another got moved all the way to the bottom of the page leaving a large gap in the middle. From the backend of the website, everything looks fine. The widgets are all in the right places, but when I view the site, it is very apparent that something is not right. Any ideas what could be causing this?

    The problem might be browser related as it only seems to be happening in Firefox and Chrome. Internet explorer looks fine (except for the video being too big for the side bar)

    The website is

    Not browser related; it's code related. You've got extra and unclosed div tags that are throwing the sidebar out. (There's no sidebar at all in Safari.) Artisteer doesn't genetae that great of code. [Invalid]Markup Validation of stlhealthyfamilies.org - W3C Markup Validator. Scroll down in the validation report to see line numbers and source code.

    Start by sorting out the validation errors. Then move onto the CSS errors.

    Thanks everyone! I know a little about coding, so this is all a learning process for me.

    Again, thanks for the help.
