I asked this question before regarding error size...

But if you go to my site right now. You can see what I mean. There is an error that stretches out across the screen, making it impossible to navigate the site.

I am looking to control the 'size' of this error message. How to do it?

Oh sure... now it went away. But it was an error generated by an RSS feed that does not come in. And unfortunately this does not appear to be anything within the magpie portion.

If you want to keep long errors in your sidebar from overflowing into your center column, then edit your css thusly:

change

#menu2 {
	background: #FFF;
	border-left: solid 2px  #000066;
	border-top: solid 2px #000066;
        border-bottom: solid 2px #000066;
        border-right: solid 2px #000066;     
	padding: 24px 2px 2px 2px;
	position: absolute;
	left: 8px;
	top: 106px;
	width: 11em;
}

to 

#menu2 {
	background: #FFF;
	border-left: solid 2px  #000066;
	border-top: solid 2px #000066;
        border-bottom: solid 2px #000066;
        border-right: solid 2px #000066;     
	padding: 24px 2px 2px 2px;
	position: absolute;
	left: 8px;
	top: 106px;
	width: 11em;
        overflow: hidden;
}


"overflow: hidden" will make sure that the long error gets cut off.

That worked great. It also solved the issue with long urls in the comment portion of the sidebar.
