Sidebar in Simple CMS

[Anonymous]

Hi:

First let me say thanks so much for the Simple CMS theme.  It’s exactly what I need to build simple static websites in an easy to use content management system.

My Problem:

I want to add a sidebar.

I have added the functions.php and the sidebar.php, and I have added the <?php include (TEMPLATEPATH . ‘/sidebar.php’); ?> line to the index.php

In short, the side bar works fine.  Positioning however is driving me mental.

Whats the proper was to get the side bar to the left or right of the main content area in the simple CMS theme?  It appears to be inside the content div.  I can float the sidebar to the right or left, but the content then just wraps around it.  I’d like to extend to the footer.  I’ve tried setting the height to 100% but to no avail.

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks

Steve
