HTML help needed!

I had to update my blog template so I could add a bloglist. The bad news is that now it has this enormous sidebar that looks really ungainly in Firefox (haven't tried it on IE yet). As you all know, I am the worlds worst person when it comes to HTML coding so if you could help me work out how to reduce the frame size I'd very much appreciate it.

Looks like an issue with the CSS... the sidebar is set to 31%, so its actual size will depend on how big the browser window is...

at 1280x1024 res, it will be around 400px big!

Try changing the 'div#sidebar' width to 15% and the 'div#main' width to 82%.

Disclaimer: I am not a CSS guru... but this seems to work OK

Yeah I've managed to make it look not so ghastly. Will play with it some more later. Thanks Jarred.

I think that you can also set the sidebar to an absolutely number of pixels which can help with the expasion you get on higher screen resolutions...
