Extra closing div tag
I can't get this template to work.
There is always an extra closing div tag in the /box-header code even though it's not there when I edit the page (I check the source after editing the page). This causes all the content to be outside of the box. I've struggled with this the last few days. I followed the directions listed here. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I tried to use this concept on my wiki, but encountered this "div" tag problem. After some analisys, I found out that the /box-header opens a "div" tag and never closes it. On the other hand, the /box-footer closes a "div" tag without ever opening it. I figured out that it's made on purpose, so that everything that goes in between those templates, stay inside a box. In my case, when the page is rendered, I see a floating "/div" tag and the content outside the box. That's because something (...and I'm not sure what) closed the "div" tag on the /box-header, making the last "/div" on the /box-footer mismatch the intended structure. But that's only on the rendered article. The code behind it remains the original. I found out a topic on the web about it, but haven't tried this solution (http://www.mwusers.com/forums/showthread.php?t=3958). Anyway, I'm still looking for an easier solution.
Two-column devolution to one-column on small, mobile screens
I've switched the hardcoded 'float: left; width: 55%' and 'float:right; width: 44%' to use the portal-column-left and portal-column-right classes I added to
