Category Description and breadcrumb before left column

Hi All

I only have the left column appearing on the category display list which houses the dynamic filter box.

Is there a way i can get the category description to display before the left column is loaded ensuring the left column is in line with the top of the first row of products in that category?

Any ideas if this can be done?

Tried CSS but had no success.

There's a number of changes to the structure of that template that would be needed to move it the way you want and certainly can be done... more of a hands on task than 100 forum posts perhaps.

Re: Category Description and breadcrumb before left column

Start moving the stuff in your custom template main page file
includes/templates/YOUR_CUSTOM_TEMPLATE/common/tpl_main_page.php

Columns, and other stuff, i.e. breadcrumbs, are in a table.
