Could someone check my code. I either have an identifier misspelled or a div missing.

The site is at http://dev.gfd-oogle.com and the original theme is at http://www.freecsstemplates.org/previews/professional/.

I would really appreciate the help.

Thanks,
Phill

Welcome to Pro Webmasters, Phill. Code questions like this are a better fit for Stack Overflow. Before asking for help there, you should run your site's URL through the W3C's validator tool and try fixing as many of the problems it lists as you can on your own. The validator tool shows that your code has no doctype, as well as some unclosed <div> and <ul> tags. Fixing those problems will fix your broken layout. Hope that helps. – Nick Jul 6 '11 at 11:21
@Nick "will fix my layout"?? Try again. Perfect validation doesn't always mean perfect layout. – Phill Fernandes Jul 6 '11 at 12:16
Cut the closing </div> that's immediately above <div id='sidebar'> and paste it on the line above <div id='footer'> instead (after the <div style='clear:both; margin:0;'></div> line). – Nick Jul 6 '11 at 12:58

My suggestion would be to fix the errors found here:

http://validator.w3.org/check?uri=http%3A%2F%2Fdev.gfd-oogle.com%2F&charset=%28detect+automatically%29&doctype=Inline&group=0

Without a more specific issue though it will be hard to diagnose your problem.

The page now validates perfectly as exhibited here: bit.ly/rq4t7R. I still can't seem to figure out why the design is messed up. – Phill Fernandes Jul 6 '11 at 12:15
