 * Hi all,
 * Im currently developing a website using wordpress. I had a hard time try to position
   Widget, as you can see in the website (except home page). Different page different
   sidebar(widget) position (For eg: [http://www.rahmamosque.com/news/](http://www.rahmamosque.com/news/).
   [http://www.rahmamosque.com/countries/](http://www.rahmamosque.com/countries/)
 * I tried to use <div style=”position:relative”><div style=”position:absolute”>
   </div></div> method to position it, which always works for me b4 I get into widget,
   now its not accurate for some reason, I think its something to do with using 
   widget, I am clueless right now.
 * Does anyone have the same problem or how you guys position widget, please help!
 * Thanks ahead,
    Lucas

 * What are you trying to do with the widget? Where should it be floating? Just 
   about 20px higher than it is at the moment?
 * Also keeping in mind, continually bumping is frowned upon.

 * `<div style="position:relative"><div style="position:absolute"></div></div>`
 * This is improper, use one div and one position and close a div properly before
   calling another position.

 * Harmck, thank you for the reply
 * im trying to position it on the right side of the page, close to the slideshow,
   just like [http://www.rahmamosque.com/gallery/](http://www.rahmamosque.com/gallery/).
   The problem am having is the widget is not stable, it seems moving up and down
   due to different page and different content for some reason. Before I use widget,
   I will just hard code those sidebars in content-page.php and it stable, wont 
   move a bit.
 * Do you have a better way to position widget/sidebar so that it wont move?

 * Thx guys for the reply, its fixed, just need to add float:left to the content
   and the slideshow section. Man I always forget those things.
