    }


    #copyrights {
    float : left;
    display: inline;
    padding-left : 5px;
    }

    #copyrights a {


    }

    and this is my html :











    <?php wp_title('«', true, 'right'); ?> <?php bloginfo('name'); ?>









    also , when you look at the image above , i used FIREBUG to detect the errors , it seems due to the tag at this line :

    You’ve done several things wrong.

    1) Get wp_get_archives out of your < head> element – it doesn’t belong there.

    2) wp_head(); should be placed INSIDE your < head> element. This is also what is adding the top margin – it’s for the admin bar. Add wp_footer(); just above your closing < /body> tag and you’ll see it appear.

    3) You’ve used an HTML5 reset in your CSS file but you aren’t using the HTML5 docytpe.
