HELP! Layout completely messed up

    Hi...

    My home page on my blog is essentially a feed of all of my posts, and the layout has completely messed up. On the home page, you can't see the sidebar until you scroll all the way down to the bottom of the page. Then when you scroll down and press the button "click for older posts", everything seems fine. Scroll down again and then press "click for older posts again....we see that not only is the sidebar gone, but TWO POSTS ARE LAYERED of one another! Not only this, but when you scroll down further, all of the posts then lose their alignment and are no longer in the center of the page.

    Please give me help and advice!

    The blog I need help with is starreviews.wordpress.com.

    This is most often caused by an open HTML tag in one of your posts.

    Go to settings > writing and select "WordPress should correct invalidly nested XHTML automatically" and then save.

    Now, starting with your latest post, open it in the editor, make one minor change such as adding and then deleting a space, and then click "update post." Check your blog and if it is back to normal, you are golden. If not, open the next post and do the same thing till it goes back to normal.
