Issue Summary
I am a designer not a developer; new at Drupal (but hooked!) with a decent working knowledge of html and css. I followed the instructions (started over twice) to create a Zen subtheme for my drupal site, making the changes to the .info and .php files. My site host is Linux, I work locally on Windows XP and use Dreamweaver for file transfer.
When I switch from using the Zen theme as the default to my new subtheme, the left navigation and page content are an overlapping mess. http://keymarketing.biz/drupal - are there any file path issues not addressed since STARTERKIT is copied from the Zen subfolder to the parent themes folder?
Any quick help would be greatly appreciated; I'm psyched to get working on the styles for my site!
Thank you!

Can anyone shed some light?

I clicked on your link and I'm not seeing any overlapping -- did you work it out?

I'm having the same problem...any solution for it yet?

I'm also having this issue on 6.x-2.1. The regions and layout and everything are designed perfectly; the issue is the sidebars' padding that I saw in layout-liquid.css somehow aren't actually happening on the page. All regions that are on the same horizontal level as the sidebars run straight into the sidebars and get covered by them.
I saw another bug report on this issue in which the fix they found was to put a page.tpl.php from another theme in the templates folder. This didn't solve it for me.
I poked around every file that could be related to the problem, but I'm no expert in CSS or PHP and, consequently, couldn't fix it.

I came across this problem in the Zero Point theme while developing a new site. I thought the problem was with Zero Point and changed the theme to Zen but the problem still remains. I found that when I create a rewrite in views the content in the second sidebar is thrown to the left of the page, but if I turn off the rewrite the content in the second sidebar returns to the right position.
If you have any rewrites in views turn them off to see if this is maybe causing the problem. Ihave posted an issue in the views issue list http://drupal.org/node/1436890 but I am using panel classes as another solution for styling the content on my site.

Apologies but it appears that my problem is not related but has something to do with the default body that ships with Drupal. If I create a custom body in cck and create a rewrite in views the content in the second sidebar gets thrown to the left of the page.

No follow-up to comment #2, so I'm closing this issue.
