layout confusion. especially side bar/content

[r_jendra]

Hi every body/dev. team,

I have installed cmsms and am playing with it more time. I have some confusion here. I'm beginner for cmsms. I've some knowledge (not more) abt css. Here I want to know some specific issue.


1.  How can I assign sidebar that have different contents like search, ad banner, image, menu(its ok 
    i'm using vertical bullet menu) etc.. and its links to main content..

2.  I'm confused abt the padding?margin? of main layout...

If anyone give me the idea abt above question, i will be very grateful....

thanks in advance

Namaste !!

Thanks for the idea...

I modified in templates and stylesheet like as following. but my new block appeacrs just above the main content block.. not under bulletmenu.. what is my mistake?????

In templates:



     
         Navigation
         {bulletmenu collapse='1'}
     


{content block='leftblock'}


     
         {title}
         {content}

            {cms_selflink dir="previous"}

            {cms_selflink dir="next"}
     

In Layout stylesheet
/*leftblock*/
div#block{
weight: 150px;
height: 300px;
            background: #098FEC;           
text-align: center;
}

I'm confused on {content block='leftblock'}

thanks.
