I have modules in both the left-hand and right-hand sidebars on the home page, which is the Joomla frontpage.

Everything works fine as long as I have only one article in the front page. However, I changed the layout to include one full article and 5 intro articles. When I did that, all text in the content area flows into the right sidebar.See the screenshot below. What’s going on here? I thought this template had all the bugs worked out of it.

Well, I figured it out myself again. Is that why nobody responded? Because you knew I could do it on my own if you just left me at it long enough?

Here was the problem: I had some graphics that were wider than the width of the center column so that pushed the text of the entire center column into the right sidebar.

But should a good template design allow this to happen? Is there an overflow setting that would keep that from happening?

Glad to see you fixed the problem. I think the fact that this did happen is a reason it is a good template. A non-properly coded design would have broken totally with oversized graphics thrown in it.
