    Hi all
    I have the following code in my a sidebar (where the widgets are shown) php file which ic s included in my index page. I only have recent posts and categories in the widgets. The code seems to add html divs but I don’t know where it comes from. Where is the widget code stored? Thank you

    <?php if( is_home() || is_front_page() ) : ?>
<!--shows if index -->
<div class="art-sidebar1" style="padding-left: 15px;width:200px;">
</div>

<?php else : ?>

<?php endif; ?>

<?php if (!art_sidebar(1)): ?>
   <?php _e('Search', 'kubrick'); ?>
<form method="get" name="searchform" action="<?php bloginfo('url'); ?>/">
<input type="text" value="<?php the_search_query(); ?>" name="s" style="width: 95%;" />
	<input class="art-button" type="submit" name="search" value="<?php _e('Search', 'kubrick'); ?>"/>
</form>
    <?php _e('Bookmarks', 'kubrick'); ?>
<ul>
      <?php wp_list_bookmarks('title_li=&categorize=0'); ?>
      </ul>
<?php endif ?>
</div>
</div>

    Do you have any function called register_sidebar() in the file functions.php of your theme? If so, check this reference, there are two arguments, “before_widget”, and “after_widget” which allow you to change the markup surrounding every widget added in this sidebar.

    Thanks that was very useful I just didn’t understand where it was coming from. I have now got rid of all the garbage formatting and left it like this:

    if (function_exists('register_sidebars')) {
	register_sidebars(1, array(
		'before_widget' => '<div id="%1$s" style="width:250px;float:left;">'.'<!--- BEGIN Widget --->',
		'before_title' => '<!--- BEGIN WidgetTitle --->',
		'after_title' => '<!--- END WidgetTitle --->',
		'after_widget' => '<!--- END Widget --->'.'</div>'
	));
}
