# Adding Javascript carousel without breaking Widgets: is it possible?

 * I’m a long time wordpress user, newbie hacker 🙂
 * I modified my theme (motion) to add a javascript carousel. I want it to show 
   up after the header, and before the posts of my home.php page. I tried just directly
   adding the script, and it worked great, but the sidebar was, as I would expect,
   in line with the posts not the carousel.
 * So I moved the <?php get_sidebar(); ?> function up to just below
    however… it
   broke my sidebar widgets. They show up, but are unclickable. I’ve tried inserting
   the function into other areas, but never works properly.
 * If there is a cleaner way of inserting the code, I would love to hear it.
 * you can see it’s current state here:

 * Thanks very much for the help.

 * I figured it out!
 * I moved the carousel to just under, <div id=”content”>, and it lined up perfectly
   with the rest of the page while keeping it’s own style (The CSS seemed to get
   disrupted if I posted it lower)
