You are using absolute positioning with the sidebar. ap removes the element from the normal flow. This allows the footer to reposition itself to the next element up.

Thank You for the replay.

I know I am using absolute position the reason is if I remove it it will move the sidebar down. I just did it and you can see what happens.
I did try all the positions and nothing is working. I think there is something wrong with my div tables or I don't know, I am working on this think for two days and can't get it to work.

Thank You

This fix the problem of overlapping and created new problem that the side bar is now not align with the top of the page.
An idea how to fix it????
Thanks

1) That sidebar you are floating left but giving it a margin-left which effectively widens it so much that it can't fit to the top. Remove the margin.
2) Then float:right
3) You have a 'test' div with white text in it, making it invisible, which is blocking the sidebar from rising to the top.

Trying to debug an invalid file peppered with a horrible case of divitus, classitus, and inline styling of tables is pretty much an exercise in futility in my book-- particularly,
if you're not getting paid for it.

Starting with a clear head and a clear mind and more important -- a clean sheet -- could get you further faster. Leave the header, horizontal nav, and footer as is. Create a two (800/190) column float left middle panel and plug the content in it-- preferably without tables or any inline styling for non-tabular content...

My site is http:/www.highcholesteroltips.org . It views fine in Firefox, but is not the case with IE. The right sidebar is intact on the home page, but moves to the bottom of the middle portion when other menu and footer links are clicked on or the "Read more of this entry" is clicked on. I recently added two new plugins. Could it be a float drop bug, and if so, how exactly do I fix this? I know very little about HTML and PHP. Thank you...

In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
