 * Help! I am in dire need of someone giving me some simple advice to fix the layout
   of my sidebar or at least offer some sort of suggestion.
 * Please see this page on my site – [The Realtor TechDesk](http://www.realtortechdesk.com/?p=5).
 * As you can see the right-hand sidebar is “below” the main content area which 
   should not be the case. Can someone please tell me where and what I can do to
   fix this. Please!

 * I have the same problem. I managed to set up the css so if shows it on the right
   side, but still, the sidebar only appears on one page only – “Gallery” page, 
   which by the way isn’t on the manage page list… wtf?

 * The OP has serious validation issues, plus – I would hazard a guess -, an excess
   of div closers immediately prior to the menu. The Firefox Web Dev kit is invaluable
   in these circumstances.

 * So are you thinking there could be a problem with the <div> tags? Here is the
   code from that page (I think). Can you see anything wrong with it?:
 * <?php get_header(); ?>
 * <div class=”left”>
    <div class=”left_articles”>
 *  <?php if (have_posts()) : while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>
 * <div style=”border: 1px solid rgb(238, 238, 238);”>
 * <div class=”buttons”>
    <p>” rel=”bookmark” title=”Permanent Link to <?php the_title();?
   >” class=”bluebtn”>Read More
   
    #comments” class=”greenbtn”><?php comments_number();?
   >
   </p>
    </div>
 * <div class=”calendar”><p>
    <?php the_time(‘M’) ?><br><?php the_time(‘d-y’) ?>
   </p></div>
 * <h2><?php the_title(); ?> </h2>
    <p class=”description”> </p> <div style=”clear:
   both;”></div>
 *  <div class=”post”> <?php the_content(); ?></div>
 * <br/>
    <?php link_pages(‘<p>**Pages:** ‘, ‘</p>’, ‘number’); ?> </div>
 *  <?php endwhile; endif; ?>
 * </div>
    </div>
 * <?php get_sidebar(); ?>
 * <?php get_footer(); ?>

 * I ended up switching to another theme. Did not have the time to go thru the code
   to determine why it was pushing my sidebar down. Thank you for all the help.
