I'm experimenting with DIVs to align my page's contents: http://labs.pieterdedecker.be/test/test.htm

As you can see, there's something wrong with the sidebar. I got the sidebar DIV to be aligned to the right of the page by doing float: right, but when the text in the sidebar stops the main area takes over the width that should be used by the sidebar.

How do I fix this?
