   I get this error:
    `Warning: Cannot modify header information - headers already
   sent by (output started at C:\xampplite\htdocs\wp-content\themes\cleanly\functions.
   php:1) in C:\xampplite\htdocs\wp-includes\pluggable.php on line 329`
 * here is my code in that file:
 *     ```
       <?php
       if(function_exists('register_sidebar'));
       register_sidebar(array('name'=>'sidebar1'));
       register_sidebar(array('name'=>'sidebar2'));
       ?>
       ```
   
 * I have been over it with a fine…
 * I had tried to uplad this them to the theme viewer, but it wouldn’t work on there,
   thats when i found this bug… I’m not sure why this is happening and if it’s why
   it will not work on the themeviewer or not…

 * Check it again.
    If you REALLY don’t have a space at the very beginning of that
   functions.php file – deactivate all your plugins: something must insert that 
   space there…

 * its either a space before the opening <.. or after the closing ?>
 * Theres no ifs ands or buts about that, and its not a bug. Its called using the
   wrong editor 🙂
