 * Im trying to put a simple javascript in the sidebar of my site
 * `<h2>Hot Topics</h2>
    <div class="mylot"><p> <script language=javascript> ml_sid
   ="Nerz32"; ml_width=150; ml_backcolor="#FFFFFF"; ml_forcolor="#888888"; ml_linkcolor
   ="#888888"; ml_borderwidth=0; ml_bordercolor="#FFFFFF"; ml_keyword="making money
   online"; ml_numresults=1; ml_boldkeyword="no"; ml_type="keyword"; ml_hfsize=10;
   ml_dfsize=9; ml_bfsize=9; ml_align="left"; ml_user=""; </script> <script language
   =javascript src="http://feed.mylot.com/feed.js"></script></p></div>
 * No matter whether I use p, or div, or any combination thereof it throws out the
   rest of my right hand sidebar. What should I have in the mylot class css to stop
   it from throwing it out.
 * Check [http://www.sitefiend.com](http://www.sitefiend.com) to see what I mean.

 * If you have a div “class”, why worry about `<p>` tag’s for? Why not just style
   the div itself, for what you want? Maybe even give it an “ID” as well.. or something..?
