 * This is a strange statement in the default style. css
 * small, #sidebar ul ul li, #sidebar ul ol li, .nocomments, .postmetadata, strike{
   
   color: #777; }
 * It used to include blockquote, and that is how I found it. I use blockquote a
   lot, and I didn’t like it in gray. I don’t know what the rest of this is, but
   I doubt if it needs it either. I removed the whole statement, without noticing
   any differences on my blog.

 * What happened for me is this: I put an image in the left column that was too 
   wide. The image overflowed into the sidebar, and IE pushed everything in the 
   sidebar to the bottom. WordPress doesn’t clip the images, you have to do that
   yourself. In general, image handling in WP could be improved. An automatic image
   upload would be nice.

 * Now, for no apparent reason, after I spent all that time fussing about it, it
   is working!

 * I got the same problem! At least I know I am not alone. At first I was a happy
   camper, 1.5 looked beautiful. Then zippo, nothing in the right column! After 
   reading your complaint, I found the sidebar text, like you, clear down on the
   bottom, under everything else.
 * My coding skills are minimal. I stumbled thru sidebar.php and looked at the HTML
   code in IE. All the code seems to be there, as far as my ignorant eyes can tell.
   But the magic to create two parallel columns is not working.
 * I looked at links.php, like you did, but I couldn’t see any H2 tags that would
   cause a problem. The sidebar formatting in style.css looks ok to me. I did see
   two empty files: link-update-cache.xml and links-update-cache.xml in wp-content
   that look suspicious.
