Help! I don't know what is happening. My blog seems to be sliding off the left side of the screen. If you scroll down the page you will see it for yourself. You will notice that some of the text is sliding out of its space. I don't know why this is happening. I have looked at my main index and my stylesheet and I can't find the problem. If anyone has any suggestions please let me know. I am hyper-anal about things like that and it is really bothering me. Please help.

Posted by: at August 5, 2003 02:25 PMIt is definately sliding for me. I notice it most on the dates above the posts. On several of them, especially further down the page, the first letter is cut in half. Maybe it is just my computer. I should try another computer.

Posted by: at August 5, 2003 02:37 PMI have checked out all of my closing tags and everything. I can't find it. It is probably one of those things that is incredibly obvious but because I have stared at it for so long I am unable to see it. I need to just walk away and come back tomorrow and look at it.

Posted by: at August 5, 2003 05:08 PMIt's a stylesheet issue. The content div is set to absolute positioning, more or less, so its the dominant div, so when it doesn't take up the same height, the links div will pop over to the right, and expand to fill whateva space the content div doesn't fill. Just tell the links div to float: right; and it'll go away.
Posted by: at August 5, 2003 05:54 PMThanks for the help, but still no luck. I set the links div to float: right and as you can (or can't) still see the text is still floating left. I'll go through my stylesheet more in depth some time this morning (hopefully) and see if I can find anything else.
