coding problems Options

[Mulder]

ok, so im trying to make a layout with a sidebar. but it looks like i cant do it with S2, and im having some problems doing it in S1.

but before i can even start on the sidebar, i have to position the entries. they're in the right place... but theres some problems.

and my codes are a mess cuz they're basically a mix of S2 css and S1 stuff.

so..

help?
