nothing's wrong with it.

YOu just forgot to have all your tags there. You need an opening tag for your css. It goes:

<html>
<title> </title>
<head>
<style>
</style> </head>
<body> </body>
</html>

you're right and thanks so much for your help. i've tried putting in the suggested css but it still doesn't work. i finally decided to make the font smaller and it's now back to it's normal layout. i supposed the font got bigger (somehow) and must have overflowed into the sidebar.

cheer mate!
