Hello helpful folks. I'm redoing my site to use Movable Type blogging software. Last night at 3AM I had it almost done, but one thing was messing me up. I decided to head to bed and fix it today. Bad idea as I forgot what I had done and what was left in the tweaking of it. So today I basically started all over again but I am having mass problems. I compare this to what I had last night and there is little different. The main problem is that the text in the main blog body area runs all the way off the page. It doesnt keep itself contained in the div I have define. There are other minor problems, but I need to get this fixed first. Any ideas? Thanks alot!

The 5px text is just for testing. I was making sure I had the editing the right div, so I changed the text size. Anyways, I checked the validation, and its not too far off. It seems like most of the problems are caused by the MT code. I'll fix the other stuff and see what I get.
Thanks.
