what ben said.. its probably not writeable so just edit it in notepad on your computer and upload it by ftp.

Are you using a Cache plugin?

if so disable it while you work.. so you can see the changes

use FTP, screw permissions, also make sure you're looking at the right theme

sometimes with custom themes, they may exclude the sidebar
