    Hi guys!

    Chris suggested I join the forums… so here I am :D

    I was having trouble with my sidebar elements in my blog not centering in IE7, and after much hair pulling and code searching, looked on the web for a solution.

    I didn’t find one, but I did find CSS-Tricks…. such a great site :D

    I’ve upgraded my IE7 to IE8 now… and things are centering, but my sidebar moves below my main content when the page gets too small….

    any tips on correcting this?

    the site is located at http://www.template-designs.co.uk – it’s a work in progress….

    Looks fine to me. Both IE7 and Firefox are rendering the same way.

    I had this problem the other day when I was building a site for a class project. I found that my problem was that my wrapper div that contained the main content div and the sidebar div wasn’t big enough. I had a wrapper div that was like 910 pixels in width and the main content was 600 and the sidbar was 300 with a 10 pixel left margin. when i resized the browser the sidbar fell below the main content. So to fix it I had to increase the wrapper div by about 20 pixels. That fixed it. Then anything you put after that you have to use the clear:both rule otherwise things could get messed up.

    thanks for this…. will try it

    Thanks guys!

    I will endeavour to do this in future.

    I’ve taken the site down whilst I sort it out.
    Better to have no site than a site that doesn’t work in my opinion.
    I’ve put a holding page there though using LaunchPad http://www.template-designs.co.uk
