Looks like I’m in over my head. It turns out I didn’t add a column at all. All I did was to narrow the content column by 120px.

I did what you said and Added a </div> and then I added a second column, “column_c.” The problem is, when I finished the css for that column, both columns ended up squished together to the right of the main content.

Here’s what my single.php file code looks like now:

<?php get_header(); ?>

<div id="column_a">
  </div>

<div id="content">

  <?php if (have_posts()) : while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>

  <div class="post" id="post-<?php the_ID(); ?>">

<div id="column_c">
  </div>

    <h2>

      <?php the_title(); ?>

    </h2>

And here’s what my css looks like now:

/******************************************
*   Content styles
******************************************/

/* some structural styles for the content area */

#column_a {/* First Column */
       width: 0px;
       float:left;
       border-right:1px solid #000000;
       }        

#content {/* main content (left of sidebar) */
	float:left;
	width:940px;
	}

#column_c {/* First Column */
       width: 0px;
       float:left;
       border-right:1px solid #000000;
       }   

#pagecontent { /* content area in static pages (without sidebar) */
	width:600px;
	float:left;
	}

I’m not sure what I’m doing wrong?
