 * I’m currently redoing the homepage layout for a client using a cForm in my sidebar
   and two problem have arisen.
 * [http://www.radioactivemedia.net/home-page-temp](http://www.radioactivemedia.net/home-page-temp)
 * First is that the sidebar is not aligned with the posts on the left. Obviously
   a float drop issue although I’ve been completely unable to figure out the solution
   to it after numerous attempts (adding a float:right to the sidebar, changing 
   the width of the narrowcolumn class in the content div, etc.)
 * Second is when I add the cForms widget I notice an excessive amount of either
   padding or margin is being added to the right of the form. You don’t notice it
   until you use the Outline Block Level Elements feature from Firefox’s Web Developers
   Toolbar. I don’t think that has an effect to the sidebar float issue but it should
   still be addressed.
 * Anyone have a solution to either or both problems?

 * Found problem #2! It was the .linklove class set to its’ original width. Changed
   it to the width of the sidebar/widget and problem disappeared. Now I just need
   to solve the float issue.

 * I’m not real sure the cforms author does support on these forums. They run their
   own forum, and are quite good at answering questions

 * Actually, they do but it’s no longer a cForms issue. It’s a sidebar float issue.
