 * Could someone please help me with the following problem. This has been annoying
   me for quite some time, and I can’t seem to identify the problem. Whenever I 
   write a post, I have to create artificial line breaks, because if I don’t the
   post pushes my sidebar div way down to the bottom. I had a similar problem with
   the comments div, but I fixed it.
 * The webpage is [http://www.ryanriggin.com](http://www.ryanriggin.com), and the
   style sheet can be found here.

 * yes, I have the same problem with large images or text- or if the user in IE 
   has big fonts- it just pushes the sidebar down. I am not a CSS guru

 * You have a typo on #main-content your missing the ‘;’ after the width property
   value.
 * It would be best if you removed the padding on the container and main-content
   divs as together with the widths of your content and sidebar they are not leaving
   enough room and you will find the sidebar being forced to the next clear line.
   try to pad on inner containers not on layout containers if you can help it, this
   also avoids the box model problem.
 * Once you have the width working on the main-content element if you still have
   problems with text then fix a width to .post to ensure that you get text wrap.
