How to avoid sidebar of blogs dropping down in IE
Problem:
The sidebar of the blog is appearing down instead of right in the blogspot blog.
Solution:
Edit the template and adjust the following till you succeed.
Use percentage rather than pixels for the main content. Use pixels for the sidebar.
@media all {
#content {
/*width:660px;*/
width:90%;
margin:0 auto;
padding:0;
text-align:left;
}
#main {
/*width:500px;*/
width:70%;
float:left;
}
#sidebar {
width:220px;
/*width:30%;*/
float:right;
}
}
Workaround:
Use firefox, a better choice.

Hi. I'm not technically inclined but I'd like to try solve this problem. I've tried your suggestion of using % but it didn't work. Any other solutions? Blog add: kikikaka.blogspot.com
I found the problem with your site.
It is the size of the image.
Solution 1: Decrease the size of the images.
or
Solution 2: Increase
#content width
width:690px;
instead of
width:660px;
hi i tried both solutions. solution 1 worked. thanks!!
This is exactly what happened after I posted today. Any help?
Thanks

Hello Praying for your Prodigal,
the problem is that your recently added image is a bit larger.
If you can't reduce it
search for
width: 483px;
in your template
replace by
width: 480px;
Does that work?
THANK YOU! I just made the change...and my sidebar is BACK! THANKS!

berni,
You could try this.
search and replace
width:740px;
with
width:760px;
in your template.
Diane,
I don't see any problem with your site. Can you plz be more specific?
bbsnelly,
This following should solve your problem.
Search for 847 in your template and replace by 910.
