how to change slideshow widget to home-top-right in Metric theme?

[fotodog13]

Hi All

I am using the Metric theme and want to have the slidehow appear on the right not the left but can't seem to get it to do that. I have changed the css to allow for the switch and the home.php file as well.

here's the code change I used for the home.php

<div class="home-top-left">

<?php if (!dynamic_sidebar('Home Top Left')) : ?>
<div class="widget">
<h4><?php _e("Home Top Left", 'genesis'); ?></h4>
<p><?php _e("This is a widgeted area which is called Home Top Left. It is using the Genesis - Featured Page widget to display what you see on the Metric child theme demo site. To get started, log into your WordPress dashboard, and then go to the Appearance > Widgets screen. There you can drag the Genesis - Featured Page widget into the Home Top widget area on the left hand side.", 'genesis'); ?></p>

</div>

<?php endif; ?>

</div><!-- end .home-top-left -->

<div class="home-top-right">

<?php if (!dynamic_sidebar('Home Top Right')) : ?>

<div class="widget"><?php if ( function_exists( 'meteor_slideshow' ) ) { meteor_slideshow(); } ?>

</div>

<?php endif; ?>

</div><!-- end .home-top-right -->

heres the css  changes  I made-

.home-top-left {

width: 410px;

float: right;

margin: 0;

padding: 10px 0 0 0;

}

and

.home-top-right {

background: #FFFFFF;

width: 520px;

height: 280px;

float: left;

margin: 0;

padding: 0;

-moz-box-shadow: 0 5px 5px #333333;

-webkit-box-shadow: 0 5px 5px #333333;

}

Would think that this should make the slideshow appear on the right side not the left- I looked at the functions.php file but did not change anything there- as it looked correct to me.
Wondering if someone can give me a suggestion as to what I need to do to make this change work

using the latest version of wordpress, studiopress, etc

fyi- I am using meteor slides for the slide show not wp-cycle but that should not matter-

thanks to any and all that take the time to reply

You need to change it in the CSS. Locate .home-top-left and .home-top-right. You need flip flop those settings.
