Okay, I've read several posts on this topic but none solve my problem. I can't figure out what attributes to give #links so that it doesn't drop to the bottom of the page. I feel like I've tried everything.
My page is a modification of "clean," but with a set width across and a border around the blog and between the sidebar and the content.

Here's my page: doodles

Here's some stylesheet excerpts:

CODE

body {
margin:20px 20px 20px 20px;
background:#FFF;
border: 2px solid #000;
width: 792px;
}

#content {
background:#FFF;
margin-right:20px;
margin-left:198px;
margin-bottom:20px;
border-left:2px solid #000;
}

#links {
width:165px;
padding : 15px;
border : 1px solid #FFFFFF;
}

Any help would be really, really appreciated. Maybe I'm missing something simple. I've been up too long, banging my head on my desk.

Does assigning a width to your #content help any??

You can always post more entries. That's guaranteed to keep your links section over to the right where it belongs. :)
