# Sidebar text box position

 * On my WP site, newenglandseminars.com, I have a Text box in my Sidebar. I added
   another Text box underneath it and for a day or so it was directly below my other
   Text box, where I wanted it. But now the bottom Text box has moved down to below
   my big box on the left side of the page.
 * Can anyone tell me why it moved and how I can get it back to where it was?
 * Thanks

 * Looks like some mark-up errors are messing things up:

 * I’m confused because I see the validation errors that are listed but when I look
   at the code in my widget I don’t see the errors there. Am I missing something?

 * Okay, if you look at the the first error — line 153 of the rendered HTML — and
   in the code there is a stray closing p tag — right before the closing div tag.
 *     ```
       <div style="font-weight: bold; color: #000000; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; font-style: normal; text-align: center;"><b style="font-size: small; background-color: #ffffff; text-align: -webkit-auto;">2012 Complimentary Clinical Nutrition & Herbal Webinars, Teleconferences & Workshops</b></p>
       </div>
       ```
   
 * You need to go through the errors one by one and track down the problems. Sometimes
   they are in the php code or from a plug-in, but more often in the content.

 * OK, I fixed some of them and got it down to 9 errors, but about half of them 
   must be part of the widget because I don’t see it in my HTML code. How do I fix
   those?
