I got this d7 sidebar code from a theme and I am trying to make it work for d6..
Can someone help

Info file contains:
regions[sidebar_a] = 'Sidebar A'
regions[sidebar_b] = 'Sidebar B'

This is the code:

                  <?php 
                      if(isset($variables) && isset($variables['sidebars'])):

                        if(isset($variables['sidebars']['left'])):
                          foreach($variables['sidebars']['left'] as $value):
                            if (!empty($page['sidebar_'.$value])): ?>
                            <div id="sidebar-<?php echo $value; ?>" class="col-<?php echo $value; ?> sidebar left tb-height-balance tb-region tb-scope tb-sidebar tb-left">
                              <?php print render($page['sidebar_'.$value]); ?>
                            </div>
                        <?php endif; endforeach; endif; ?>

                      <?php 
                        if(isset($variables['sidebars']['right'])):
                          foreach($variables['sidebars']['right'] as $value):
                            if (!empty($page['sidebar_'.$value])): ?>
                            <div id="sidebar-<?php echo $value; ?>" class="col-<?php echo $value; ?> sidebar right tb-height-balance tb-region tb-scope tb-sidebar tb-right">
                              <?php print render($page['sidebar_'.$value]); ?>
                            </div>

                        <?php endif; endforeach; endif; ?>

                      <?php 
                        if(isset($variables['sidebars']['hidden'])):
                          foreach($variables['sidebars']['hidden'] as $value):
                            if (!empty($page['sidebar_'.$value])): ?>
                            <div id="sidebar-<?php echo $value; ?>" class="col-<?php echo $value; ?> sidebar right tb-height-balance tb-region tb-scope tb-sidebar tb-right tb-hidden">
                              <?php print render($page['sidebar_'.$value]); ?>
                            </div>

                    <?php endif; endforeach; endif; endif; ?> <!-- end sidebars -->

Where are you adding that code? – David Thomas Jan 7 at 0:13
@DavidThomas This code is in page.tpl.php but the code is for d7 as you can see and I am trying to make it work for d6... This code makes the sidebar in a theme somehow go full length regardless of what the content length is and mine in d6 is not doing that so I'm not sure how I can do that with css either ? – Altin Ukshini Jan 7 at 1:03
an easier way to set the sidebar height is with CSS, e.g: #sidebar-left{ min-height: 800px; } – David Thomas Jan 7 at 1:11
@DavidThomas I don't want my sidebar to be fixed sized, it should be the same as the article in the left – Altin Ukshini Jan 7 at 2:27

Functionality aside, I think the basic structure for D6 would be:

<?php
if(isset($sidebars['left'])):
  foreach($sidebars['left'] as $value):
    if (!empty(${'sidebar_'.$value})): ?>
    <div id="sidebar-<?php echo $value; ?>" class="col-<?php echo $value; ?> sidebar left tb-height-balance tb-region tb-scope tb-sidebar tb-left">
      <?php print ${'sidebar_'.$value}; ?>
    </div>
    <?php 
    endif; 
  endforeach; 
endif; ?>
