Sidebox shifting issue! home page fine next page expands too much

My left side boxes are fine on the first (home page) then they expand to half of the page on all of the following pages.....any ideas? I will give a screen shot and the css template (Classic Zen) I am using. And no it is not fixable by Admin, as far as I can tell, I tried that already I have 1.3.8 installed onepage checkout ( which is owrking great! =) and google checkout that is great too! The Css flyout menu I installed last. Once I discovered the problem, I removed all of the files I installed for the Flyout Menu...to see if one of those was causing the problem, it is still happening.
I am at www realrider tack .org
I was working on installing the imageless CSS flyout menu by Getmfast (post#266) and ususally I am very carefull to document all of the changes, but I got cocky and must have missed something. Here is the Style sheet I am using and a cuople of screen shots

Re: Sidebox shifting issue! home page fine next page expands too much

A link to the site, if possible, is always handier than images, but I was able to see the URL in the gif.

One thing I would double-check first would be the two width settings for the sidebox columns in Admin.

It looks like something is forcing the center box content to the left on the home page, since there is about the same amount of blank space between the center content and the right column as is added to the left column on the other pages, but I can't see what it is. I don't see any margin mistakes in the stylesheet.

Re: Sidebox shifting issue! home page fine next page expands too much

Hmmmm... Thanks for the reply =) I am wondering if I forgot that I edited a Php file and changed the ...size, orientation, or? and maybe this is causing the problem..usually I am more careful than this, But still learning! I will check the admin and write back...maybe I can subtitute working files from the https://www.realridertack.org/version5 store one by one and see if that helps since that store's flyout menu and catagories sidebox are working fine.

Any other suggestions? help :}

Re: Sidebox shifting issue! home page fine next page expands too much

Now I will go reinstall the easy css flyout and see if it will behave itself
