 * [Here’s a link to my blog](http://www.tallvees.com/airporte/2007/)
 * I can’t seem to find out how to add some top margin or top padding to the main
   content (right column). I’ve already added the top margin and padding to both
   navigation and sub-navigation columns but for some reason it won’t work out with
   the right column.
 * Any ideas?

       <?php get_header(); ?>
   
       <?php list_subpages_andreas01(); ?> <?php // This generates the subpage menu. If you don't want to use it, delete this line. ?>
   
       <div id="contentwide">
       <?php if (have_posts()) : while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>
   
       <div class="post">
       <h2><?php the_title(); ?></h2>
       <?php the_content('<p class="serif">Read more &raquo;</p>'); ?>
       <?php link_pages('<p><strong>Pages:</strong> ', '</p>', 'number'); ?>
       <?php edit_post_link('Edit this page','<p>','</p>'); ?>
       <?php comments_template(); ?>
       <?php endwhile; endif; ?>
       </div>
       </div>
   
       <?php get_footer(); ?>
       ```
   
 * By the way, here’s my code for the Page Template. The right column sits in the
   contentwide and content divs. I’ve tried adding padding and margin to both classes
   in the stylesheet but it just won’t move.
