 * For unknown reasons, my sidebar has expanded. Where do I change it to make it
   narrower?

 * I really do mean this in the most courteous way, hopefully it will help you. 
   The way you have marked up your index.php is so far from the default, and so 
   far from the way many folk here might be inclined to do it, that it is inevitably
   going to limit our understanding of what is happening, and may restrict the number
   of folks able to assist. Hopefully someone will be along shortly.

 * What do you mean by “marked up?” The template was custom designed. Is that what
   you mean? And I’ve added sidebar items. Is that it?

 * By *marked up* – I am referring to the html.

 * Well I am sorry but that is a very difficult question to answer.
