Writing an article is often a balancing act between presenting the information you need to convey, and describing other interesting, but non-essential aspects of the topic. In the past when I have found myself in this situation, I have resorted to using html tables to achieve a sidebar. While this works, it is kludgy to set up.

knockNrod submitted a suggestion for a new CodeProject sidebar css class. This now has been incorporated into the official CodeProject css stylesheet and is available using
<div class="sidebar-right"> and
<div class="sidebar-left">. I want to thank knockNrod for sharing this great idea.
