  Hello there,
  I’m using Firefox 7.0.1 and I see your sidebar displaying correctly. Please try clearing your browser cache and cookies. http://www.google.com/support/accounts/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=32050

  Thanks,

  I’m using Firefox 7 as well. Please see the second blue sidebar, it’s just at the bottom of the page. It should be under the first green sidebar next to the posts

  Now I see it too! Typically this is caused by an open HTML tag in one of your posts and id frequently caused by copying and pasting. It can also be caused by an open HTML tag in a text widget.

  Go to Settings > Writing and select “ ___ WordPress should correct invalidly nested XHTML automatically” and then scroll down and click “Save Changes.”

  Now, starting with your latest post, open it in the editor, make one minor change such as adding a space and then deleting it, and then click “Update Post.” Check your blog and see if it is back to normal.

  If you have been copying and pasting text from elsewhere without using either icon 5 or icon 6 in Row 2 of the visual editor, please see here so you know how to do this correctly in the future. http://en.support.wordpress.com/visual-editor/#pasting-text

  Thank you very much .. the problem is solved now
  Can I know what was the problem? is it something I can avoid in the future or it is just a bug in the theme?

  Most of the time jumping formatting is a paste text thing – see the links @timethief gave above for using the Paste Text Box’s – early on here I trashed some things when I pasted in from Word – now I use the Paste Plain Text box for everything or sometimes I will go into the html editor and paste there –

  No Problem, Glad I could help. The issue had to do with float clearing in CSS. There’s nothing that you could have done to prevent this issue. But if you see something like this in the future, feel free to post here at anytime and we will do our best to help!
