I need some help with some stuff with this design:

By no means is it very elaborate or original however I only needed something basic. But basically I currently have it setup as fixed width, however I'd *prefer* to have it fluid. The problem I have is that the right sidebar bit needs to be fixed width, so the main content bit just changes size. I've tried making the main content 100% width with padding for the right sidebar but it doesn't seem to work as it forces the sidebar bit downwards.

Try position: absolute?
It's hard to help here as the source code would be more beneficial as we can physically help you!

Also sounds like the content is above the sidebar, try changing that too.
Since the sidebar would be above the DIV..


<div id="sidebar"></div>
<div id="main"></div>


Can be that simple sometimes!

If I position absolute then It'd screw a lot of things up in terms of order of objects. Putting the sidebar above the main content wouldn't work, it would have the same problem as before just the other way round.
