I recently (within the past month) replaced both headlights. The driver's side headlight was out completely and I decided to replace both at the same time. Thanks to directions from other users on this site, I was able to do that myself. However, now on the driver's side the light will occasionally go out. When I push on the light casing, it will go back on, but not for long. I have tried removing it several times and putting it back in, hoping for a better electrical connection. I have also checked the bulb connection and the electrical connection for the casing. Can anyone tell me what is wrong and how to fix it?

Are you sure the housing is in all the way? Sounds like a connection issue to me. Check the wiring carefully too.
