 * Hi all,
 * I have a custom theme that i developed in html5 & css3.
    The post area is in 
   a section>article part and the sidebar in a section>aside.
 * When I use the get_post and the_excerpt method in the post article area only 
   the first post title shows up and excepts of the next posts. The sidebar then
   is in the post area.
 * I have tried to float the article area to the left and the aside to the right,
   with no success :/
 * Here is the css code of those two areas:
    NOTE: The #main is the section with
   that ID
 *     ```
       #main {
       		display: block;
       		width: 96%;
       		max-width: 980px;
       		margin: 1.25em auto;
       		padding: 0em;
       	}
   
       	#main article {
       		display: inline-block;
       		width: 65.3%;
       		background: #fff;
       		vertical-align: top;
       		margin: 0em;
       		padding: 0em;
       		text-align: center;
       	}
   
       	#main article a {
       		font-family: Tahoma, sans-serif;
       		font-weight: 100;
       		font-size: 0.8em;
       		color: #f46523;
       	}
   
       	#main article img {
       		max-width: 560px;
       	}
   
       	#main article h2 {
       		padding: 1em 1.8em 1em 1.8em;
       	}
   
       	.post-meta {
       		display: block;
       		text-align: left;
       		line-height: 1.25em;
       		font-family: Tahoma, sans-serif;
       		font-weight: 100;
       		margin: 0em;
       		padding: 1.25em;
       		text-align: justify;
       		font-size: 0.8em;
       		color: #777;
       	}
   
       	.post-meta a {
       		color: #f46523;
       	}
   
       	/*sidebar*/
       	#main aside {
       		display: inline-block;
       		width: 30.6%;
       		margin-left: 3%;
       		padding: 0em;
       		vertical-align: top;
       	}
   
       	#main aside section {
       		margin-bottom: 1.563em;
       		background: #fff;
       	}
   
       	#main aside section ul {
       		padding: 0em 1.875em 1.25em 2.5em;
       	}
       ```
   
 * Thanks in advance
