Content Displaces Sidebar

To anyone it may concern – the issue was that my closing div tag </div> for my container was not encapsulating the entirety of the code it needed to. To someone who barely understands code – in essence the fix was simple, if you create a any kind of container such as <div id="container"> then the container controls everything between that opening div and where it closes </div>.

You probably already know this – and it’s not rocket science, but when getting format displacement it’s a great idea to start with making sure you have closed your divs in the right place. Also, as RVoodoo noted – you really want to validate your code to make sure it runs smoothly in all browsers! This will probably also lead you to the issues that cause layout problems. Thanks RVoodoo and I hope this helps someone with the same problem!
