Solved:
After a lot of experiments (including the suggestions made by peredur and shirazdrum above) I finally succeeded in removing the blank space through the following modifications:

i) Restored the .css file back to original.

ii) Added/Modified the following:

In div #subtitle, added the following:
padding-left:22px;

And in #header h1, modified only the value (i.e. from 90 to 100):
padding-right:90px;

Thanks, shirazdrum!
I have modified div#wrap, and the page now centres.
I have also adjusted the nav-list (menu) accordingly, yet the blank space to the right of the webpage remains!

Further to above issue:
Even in localhost and with brolmo calendar there is no blank space to the right of the webpage in IE8, too.

I have deleted all the Temporary Internet Files from my pc, yet the problem persists.

May I add that there is no blank or white space when I open the same theme at the following website, please, even in IE8:

Could it be caused by the calendar?

Hi, Thanks peredur for your prompt and well-researched reply!
I have gone through the Error-details given out by the HTML Validator — most of these pertain to the Javascript that I took off the Internet (as is where is — no support provided).

Some of these errors concern the files that came with the WordPress Theme itself — that also came from the Net as unsupported open source.

Apparently, with my beginner’s expertise in Java & PHP I shouldn’t be playing around with the aforesaid codes.

Only a few errors pertained to what I had deliberately added to my Posts, e.g. the <p> tags — that were successfully experimented to create double-space between paragraphs (this Theme gives only single space, deapite trying 3 carriage-returns). As per your advice, I have now removed these tags.

However, the white space to the right of the webpage persists in IE8 –although it is not there when I open the same webpage in Google Chrome, Opera, Mozilla or Safari. Kindly advise, asap. Thanks in advance!

I logged into my Plesk=Panel, went to Database, and was able to open phpMyAdmin. From there I could browse to Posts, and then copy the contents (HTML) of these Posts.

If I could access this database, then why is ‘index.php’ file not opening? Any suggestions, please?

Hi, Tim
Checked File permissions (via Plesk-Panel); FULL Permissions have been granted to the wordpress folder.

I do not have access to the Error Log for the Server (access only to the Log File in the Log Manager of Plesk-Panel is available — which is not of much help in solving the present issue) please.

Hi Tim
Thanks!
I changed the name of the ‘plugins’ folder to “xplugins” in another wordpress application — that was EARLIER functioning correctly, and corrected its config.php file to refer to the newly created Test Database (MySQL).
Moreso, I cleared my browser’s cache.
Then opened the ‘readme.html’ file, and clicked ‘install’ link:
https://consultant-law-education-india-nepal.in/wordpress/readme.html

Message: “It appears that wordpress is already installed … Login”.

So, I clicked the Login button, and the Login window opened. I logged in. But the RESULTANT Page reads, again:
“Internal Server Error”

And when I open the above URL (https://consultant-law-education-india-nepal.in/wordpress/index.php), a blank page stares at me.

Awaiting your valuable input, please.

Hi, Tim
Thanks for the prompt reply, please.
Your suggestion can be implemented if the wordpress application opens. Kindly check the URL provided in my Query — you’ll find that the index.php file does not open at all.

Kindly check the following URLs and suggest a solution, please:

The last wordpress application (‘wp’) was created alongwith a new database for Testing purposes only. But this application has failed to even install (I get the usual IE error when any webpage does not open) — you can see the results yourself, please:
