 * Hey guys, im wondering if someone can possibly [add the asides code given here](http://codex.wordpress.org/Adding_Asides)
   into [my index.php file](http://php.pastebin.com/m216a078d). Everytime i do it
   i get it wrong, im such a noob at php. Your help would be great.

 * Neil,
 * Are you trying to have the asides appear in your sidebar, or in the main content
   area like Matt’s done on [http://ma.tt](http://ma.tt) ? Sounds like the latter.
 * I’ve not done this before, but I’m certainly willing to help troubleshoot.
 * Maybe I’ll learn something. 🙂

 * sewmyheadon, just like matt has it, i have asides on my blog, but they look terrible
   plus the code is icky. This seems pretty easy, just cant figure out where to 
   place the code.

 * If I’m correct, you actually have the asides working – they’re the little suckers
   with the red star next to them, correct?
 * Are you just hoping to make them stand out more and look better, or are you trying
   to group them at the top of the page?

 * Basically just to have the vertical line beside them like on matts page, thats
   all, pretty much. No grouping at the top 😉

 * p.s the star posts are the asides posts, im using the [code i found here](http://www.remotesensingtools.com/2007/10/26/easy-asides-for-wordpress/),
   but the star look terrible hehe

 * Try adding this to your style.css file:
 *     ```
       ul.asides_entry {border-left:5px solid #000;}
       ```

 * Nope, for ease sake I’d stick it right under:
 *     ```
       ul { list-style-image: url(images/bullet.gif); }
       ```

 * Looks like you sorted the color, try this to remove the star:
 * `ul.asides_entry li {list-style:none;}`

 * Sorry man, there seems to be a problem. In IE all versions the asides got all
   messed up. In the theme i use there are two style sheets, one normal and then
   this : ie-win.css (ie-win.css)
 *     ```
       #navigation { float: left; }
   
       #navigation ul { float: right; }
   
       #navigation li.active a:link,
       #navigation li.active a:visited
       {
       	color: #555555;
       	background-color: #ffffff;
       }
   
       #content-wrapper { width: 58%; }
   
       #content pre { width: 360px; overflow: hidden; }
   
       #wrapper h3.post-title a:link,
       #wrapper h3.post-title a:visited
       {
       	border-bottom-width: 0;
       }
   
       #extras { padding-right: 0; margin-right: 0; margin-left: 8px; padding-left: 0; }
   
       #extras #friends ul { padding-left: 0; margin-left: 20px; }
   
       #extras #links { width: 250px; }
       ```
   
 * Is there anything we can do to fix it?
