 * Hi, I have been using this plugin called sliding widgets which is a simple plugin
   to add an widget area which slides in and out with jquery from the side. I have
   decided to deactivate it but when i do, it creates all sorts of php errors that
   come from various places like from wp-includes/function.php which I find strange.
 * I have removed all the widgets that was being attached to the widget area from
   the plugin so there should be no association with any other content.
 * how could this be? is there a way to safely remove the plugin without creating
   errors?
 * thank you.
