Hello,
I have just recently upgraded from 1.39 to 1.51 and changed templates also. Here is my site:
http://earthscauldron.com/worknewzen/
I can not figure out what in the world is messing up my column widths. I have them set as the template suggests but they change on every page.
Look here:
http://earthscauldron.com/worknewzen...in_page=page_3
I have ran it through the validator but I'm not even sure what would make a site do this. My last Zen site didn't do it, but I have apparently done something wrong here, or added something really wrong somewhere.
Does anyone know right off hand what may be doing this?
The validator shows this:
Validation Output: 3 Errors
(1)
Error end tag for X omitted, but OMITTAG NO was specified
You may have neglected to close an element, or perhaps you meant to "self-close" an element, that is, ending it with "/>" instead of ">".
Line 1309, column 7: end tag for "div" omitted, but OMITTAG NO was specified
</body></html>
(2&3)
Error end tag for X which is not finished
Most likely, you nested tags and closed them in the wrong order. For example <p><em>...</p> is not acceptable, as <em> must be closed before <p>. Acceptable nesting is: <p><em>...</em></p>
Another possibility is that you used an element which requires a child element that you did not include. Hence the parent element is "not finished", not complete. For instance, in HTML the <head> element must contain a <title> child element, lists require appropriate list items (<ul> and <ol> require <li>; <dl> requires <dt> and <dd>), and so on.
Line 783, column 26: end tag for "ul" which is not finished
</ul>
Line 859, column 21: end tag for "ul" which is not finished
</ul>
I don't know if this is causing the problem or not, as I do not know where to find these codes to fix them. (yeah I'm an idiot about this stuff)
AND if I do fix these, will it fix my problem or is that somewhere else?????????
If anyone has any suggestions I would love to hear them and I thank you in advance~
p.s. also note that the slide show on the main page is slightly off (idk if this has anything to do with it or not)

Re: Layout / Sidebox issue .... Totally Stumped!
be sure to add "px" to the width values in the admin, so they look like 185px instead of 185

Re: Layout / Sidebox issue .... Totally Stumped!
You have some really weird CSS issues. The centre column is re-sizing based on the content width in the centre column. If you go to your stylesheet and assign a fixed width to your centre column then it should cure this strange, re-sizing template of yours :)

the centre column resizes, because the side-box width isn't set properly, not the other way around :)
