Can anyone tell me why my text is not aligning right for my in page nav?

I am trying to install a sidebar nav, can anyone tell me why my text will not align right and sit on the outside of the text.

I notice your code has a class of "sideright", which I would expect is intended to apply the right-alignment. Normally this would be defined in an external CSS file, but if you don't have one, you can also define it in the head section of the html document:

<head>
  <!-- title and other head items -->
  <style>
    .sideright { text-align: right; }
  </style>
</head>
