    I’m working on a site right now and I’m trying to mix things up a bit. Instead of having a vertical sidebar with my calendar, events, etc. to the right of the content, I want to make a horizontal sidebar between the content and the footer. So in my template index page I did this:

    <?php get_sidebar(); ?>
    <?php get_footer(); ?>
    </div>
    </body>
    </html>

    But the sidebar is still getting inserted above the content. What’s up with that?

    Here’s a link

    There are many themes doing that.
    Go download 2-3 (ten?) of them*, dissect them, study the code, the CSS and you’ll learn.
    That’s the way to do it, if you want to become a designer. Oops, you claim you are…

    This is most likely a matter of your CSS. You’ll need to set the different elements in your markup to float: left against each other in your stylesheet. If you’re unfamiliar with this technique, you might download some themes that already do this successfully and study them as moshu suggested. Another good study resource is over at W3 Schools.
