My site www.toddhollander.com/blog/ looks great in Firefox. However, when opened with Internet Explorer v6, the right-side plugins are moved to the bottom of the page. Is there a solution for this problem?
Thanks,
Todd
Right panel moves to bottom of page in IE6
We've seen this before in other templates. Validate your HTML at the w3c website; often a missing or misplaced tag can cause this kind of problem. Additionally, IE uses an incorrect implementation of borders and padding, leading to a width problem that can cause floated items to wrap to the next line. Verifying this requires fooling around with the CSS, making sure that the width of the sidebar container plus the width of the main container is less than the page width.
Yours looks like a missing tag, though. I think that has been the result of some plugin or other. Validate your HTML to find the missing tag.

Problem solved
Well I don't know if this is the technically correct solution but it worked so I thought I would share it.
Since my version of FrontPage doesn't let me validate html, I downloaded a free validator and used it to check the entry. It revealed dozens of problems with tags in the extended html. This made me wonder if somehow the entry was not saved properly, so before manually correcting each individual problem, I resaved the entry in Serendipity but checked the box at the bottom of the page for "Show HTML-Validator on preview " Although I did not see any validation results, as if by magic the entry was now correctly formatted.
Weird but apparently the problem is solved.
