 * Hello,
 * [http://k12.engineering.asu.edu/wordpress/?p=74](http://k12.engineering.asu.edu/wordpress/?p=74)
 * I am having this problem with the side bar. i have colored the sidebar for visual
   purpose. the text is over flowing to the left of the #side div. the ‘ized and
   ies’ you see is the overflown text which is hidden right now.
 * please tell me why it is over flowing to the left when my height is also auto.

 * The text isn’t overflowing. #sidebar is larger than .sidebar.

 * My apologies; It’s #side – not .sidebar. Defined in master.css.

 * got it! i think it was picking up #sidebar from master.css instead of style.css.
   i just changed sidebar to side_bar and it worked! thank you.
