    You have something in there that's too wide for that area.

    I don't know. I see the feedburner is pretty wide and that 'get this widget' (technorati) thing and this link: scottymac.blogspot.com looks wide.


    try adding

    overflow: hidden;

    to the css class that controls that sidebar.

    Looks like sidebar has a lot of assignments...

    Search for this #sidebar and add the overflow: hidden; to every occurrence of #sidebar

    EX:
    #sidebar a,#sidebar a:visited {
    	color:#ffa200;
    	text-decoration:none;
    }
    
    will look like this:
    
    #sidebar a,#sidebar a:visited {
    	color:#ffa200;
    	text-decoration:none;
            overflow: hidden;
    }
    Code (markup):
    ...can't be sure that's all that's needed.

    Sure. Try with every occurrence.


    You could also remove some of the wider objects and see if the sidebar comes back.

    I don't need any money for it. PM details needed to gain access and I'll see what I can do.

    No, no luck. I noticed it's only on the front page. Looks like a table is not balanced. May be in one of the posts. I don't know.

    try adding this line:
    
    #content { width: 100%; }
    
    Code (markup):
    just below this other line on your .html file:
    
    <style id="konaStyle" type="text/css">
    
    Code (markup):
