Footer is Different

probably in the category.php or categories.php – whatever you have – there are two closing </div> missing.

you need to check that every div is closed properly in the proper order.

I am trying to figure this out, but I can’t make it work. It looks better than before, but now I can’t get the Search moved up on the right side. Can you please look at the below code and let me know if you see anything.

<?php get_header(); ?>

<div id="content"> </div>
	<div id="content-inner">

<div id="main">

<h2 id="sectiontitle"><?php single_cat_title('Category: '); ?></h2>

<?php if (have_posts()) : ?>

	<?php while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>

	<div class="post" id="post-<?php the_ID(); ?> </div>

	<h2><a href="<?php the_permalink() ?>" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent Link to <?php the_title(); ?>"><?php the_title(); ?></a></h2>

		<div class="entry">
				<?php the_content(__('Read more &raquo;')); ?>
		</div>

		<div class="postmetadata">
		 <?php if (get_the_tags()){?>
		 		  	<p>Tags: <?php the_tags('') ?></p>
		<?php } ?>
			<p><img style="vertical-align:-5px;" alt="categories" src="<?php bloginfo('template_directory'); ?>/images/category.gif" height="16" width="16" /> <?php the_category(', ') ?> | <?php the_author_posts_link(); ?>  | <?php the_date(); ?> | <img style="vertical-align:-5px;" alt="comments" src="<?php bloginfo('template_directory'); ?>/images/comment.gif" height="16" width="16" /> <?php comments_popup_link(__('Comments (0)'), __('Comments (1)'), __('Comments (%)')); ?> <?php edit_post_link('Edit',' ',''); ?></p>

			</div> 

		<?php comments_template(); ?>

</div>

	<?php endwhile; ?>

	<div id="navigation">
			<div class="fleft"><?php next_posts_link('&laquo; Older') ?></div>
					<div class="fright"> <?php previous_posts_link('Newer &raquo;') ?></div>

	<?php else : ?>

	<div class="post">
	<div class="entry">
		<h2>Not Found</h2>
		<p>Sorry, you are looking for something that isn't here.</p>
	</div>
	</div>	

	<?php endif; ?>

	<!-- eof main -->

<?php get_sidebar(); ?>

<?php get_footer(); ?>

i had to rewrite it: just copy everything and replace the content of the file that you posted.

<?php get_header(); ?>

<?php get_sidebar(); ?>

<div id="content">
<div id="main">

<h2 id="sectiontitle"><?php single_cat_title('Category: '); ?></h2>

<?php if (have_posts()) : ?>

	<?php while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>

	<div class="post" id="post-<?php the_ID(); ?> </div>

	<h2><a href="<?php the_permalink() ?>" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent Link to <?php the_title(); ?>"><?php the_title(); ?></a></h2>

		<div class="entry">
				<?php the_content(__('Read more &raquo;')); ?>
		</div> <!-- end .entry -->

		<div class="postmetadata">
		 <?php if (get_the_tags()){?>
		 		  	<p>Tags: <?php the_tags('') ?></p>
		<?php } ?>
			<p><img style="vertical-align:-5px;" alt="categories" src="<?php bloginfo('template_directory'); ?>/images/category.gif" height="16" width="16" /> <?php the_category(', ') ?> | <?php the_author_posts_link(); ?>  | <?php the_date(); ?> | <img style="vertical-align:-5px;" alt="comments" src="<?php bloginfo('template_directory'); ?>/images/comment.gif" height="16" width="16" /> <?php comments_popup_link(__('Comments (0)'), __('Comments (1)'), __('Comments (%)')); ?> <?php edit_post_link('Edit',' ',''); ?></p>

		<?php comments_template(); ?>

</div> <!-- end .postmetadata -->
</div> <!-- end .post -->

	<?php endwhile; ?>

	<div id="navigation">
			<div class="fleft"><?php next_posts_link('&laquo; Older') ?></div>
					<div class="fright"> <?php previous_posts_link('Newer &raquo;') ?></div>
</div> <!-- end .navigation -->

	<?php else : ?>

	<div class="post">
	<div class="entry">
		<h2>Not Found</h2>
		<p>Sorry, you are looking for something that isn't here.</p>
	</div>
	</div>	

	<?php endif; ?>

</div>	<!-- end #main -->

</div> <!-- end #content -->

<?php get_footer(); ?>

Yes that worked, BUT can you tell me exactly what you did to fix this?

I am just curious so I would know in the future

1. the sidebar was called at the end instead of the beginning – i suppose that was the biggest change;
2. deleted a superfluous ‘div id=2content-inner”;
3. moved a closing ‘/div’ from before ‘comments-temple’ to after it;
4. closed the ‘div id=”navigation” properly;
5. closed ‘#main’ where there was only the comment ‘eof #main’;
6. before calling the footer, closed the ‘#content’ div.

in general just made sure that all divs were closed in the right order.

Thanks so much for that explanation!!!
