Placing video above the content gallery

[luis_33]

I want to place the video above the content gallery, set to the left (its there already) however I want the back ground to go across the span of the homepage so that I can place text in that area with other links and information.

I managed to get the video placed within the hpbottom music section and then pasted the code above the content gallery - great. But the sidebar is moved down along with the content gallery leaving an empty space to the right of the homepage. The back ground on which the video is placed with the music content is fine. But I would love to add text as well. Url: laluzblog.org

I pasted the code below to show what I did.

<div id="homepagebottom">

<div class="hpbottom">

<h3>Lo nuevo en este volumen</h3>

<!--This is where the thumbnails are found for the homepage bottom section - note the custom field name for this

image is "hpbottom". Recommended image size is 70x70, as the stylesheet is written for this size.-->

<div class="video">


<?php $video = get_option('revchurch_video'); echo stripslashes($video); ?>

</div> <---!(I plugged the video code here within this section to allow for some text but a large empty space is left to the right of it. I would like for it span over the content gallery and the side bar.)-->

<?php $recent = new WP_Query("cat=17&showposts=0"); while($recent->have_posts()) : $recent->the_post();?>
<?php if( get_post_meta($post->ID, "thumbnail", true) ): ?>
<a href="<?php the_permalink() ?>" rel="bookmark"><img style="float:left;margin:0px 10px 0px 0px;" src="<?php echo get_post_meta($post->ID,

"thumbnail", true); ?>" alt="<?php the_title(); ?>" /></a>
<?php else: ?>

<?php endif; ?>
<?php the_title(); ?>
<?php the_content_limit(500, "[Read more of this review]"); ?>

<div style="border-bottom:1px dotted #2255AA; margin-bottom:10px; padding:0px 0px 5px 0px;

clear:both;"></div>

<?php endwhile; ?>
