1 I've set up a simple sidebar on an otherwise fairly default wiki. The sidebar uses css float:right and sits above most pages quite nicely.
3 For example, my wiki's [front](http://www.cse.unsw.edu.au/~cs3431/wiki/) and [news](http://www.cse.unsw.edu.au/~cs3431/wiki/news/) pages show the sidebar nicely floating on top of the background. (As a side note, I had to add:
10 to <code>local.css</code> to get the border and make sure that the RSS feed's grey title didn't show through on the news page.)

16 Unfortunately, the [recentchanges](http://www.cse.unsw.edu.au/~cs3431/wiki/recentchanges/) page doesn't look so nice - the sidebar appears below the recentchanges list.
18 I don't understand why the sidebar is appearing below the recentchanges inline, but above the news inline.
