CSS/ HTML problems, help appreciated

Hi,


I am trying to put up a new adspot on my side, in order to do so I need to modify the html in the template (smart TPL) files and the css

I am trying to make a div ID for this ad spot in the css, here is what I got :

#leftad{margin:0;padding:0;width:120px;text-align:center;float:left}#leftad span{margin:0;padding:3px;display:block;color:#aeaeae}

Code (markup):

and for the html code for the tpl file

</div>
        <div id="leftad" >
		<span>{$lang0}</span>
        {insert name=get_advertisement value=var AID="7"}

Code (markup):

So now for my problem :

When I put the code in, it works, it does what its supposed to to, but it pushes everything down to the bottom (recently/ featured videos)

so it is getting in the way oh the main content of the page

is there anyway around this?

PLEASE REPLY IF YOUR READING THIS!

Thanks
