If you’re using dial up, then I think its a computer problem and not wordpress.

Never mind, found the answer to my problem here: LOOK HERE

Note: You must do this to most of your pages like: (404.php, archive.php, archives.php, image.php, search.php, single.php, links.php, etc)

Same here! Thanks so much for answering this!!!!!

I tried what techmulla said but my divs disappeared off the page! The footer and header just met up with each other like my wrapper div never existed.

Ohh goodie! Fixed myself by just messing around, apparantly, where it says, position: absolute in the #main it should say position: relative (basically, replace absolute with relative). For the sidebar, KEPT float right and added the same code except used right instead of left so I got the coding below: (I have no idea if this is valid since most sites I went looking how to do this, just had position: absolute.)

*EDIT* LOOKS VALID! My site just passed validation so it looks like it works perfectily fine! Don’t know the effects on other browsers though, except for IE7 which came out just like in Firefox.

/* --------------- Div ID's --------------- */

/* ----- HEADER ----- */

#header {
width:741px;
height:224px;
background-image:url("");
border:solid 0px #000;
}

/* FAUX LAYOUT WRAPPER */

#wrapper{
width:741px;
background:url("") repeat-y;
overflow:auto;
margin-top:0px;
position: relative;
}

/* ----- NAVIGATION ----- */

#sidebar {
width:182px;
min-height:500px; /* for modern browsers */
height:auto !important; /* for modern browsers */
height:500px; /* for IE5.x and IE6 */
background:transparent;
border:solid 0px #000;
float: right;
position:relative;
          right:92px;
          top:0px;
}

/* ----- MAIN CONTENT ----- */

#main {
width:362px;
min-height:500px; /* for modern browsers */
height:auto !important; /* for modern browsers */
height:500px; /* for IE5.x and IE6 */
background:transparent;
border:solid 0px #000;

margin-top:0px;
position:relative;
          left:72px;
          top:0px;
}

/* ----- FOOTER ----- */

#footer {
width:741px;
height:325px;
background-image:url("");
margin-top:0px;
border:solid 0px #000;
}

I took off the border since I don’t need them anymore now that they I know where my divs are. Its good to add a border when doing this so you can see your div boxes (unless they have backgrounds).

You can edit I theme without it being live. When I tried this, I went to: Appearance > Editor and at the top right, there’s a drop down box saying “Select Theme to Edit.” Your theme will remain live while the one your editing is not “live” at all. Bad things is, you can’t preview it unless you install a plugin.

You can find the plugin here: https://boren.nu/archives/2005/03/08/preview-theme-plugin/

I’ve never tried it though, so I don’t know how well it works or if it works with the latest version.

Thanks soooo much! I was too tired I must have overlooked that and was so frustrated. Its fixed!
