   this page error when loading:
 * Message: Syntax error

 * Have you tried:
 * – deactivating all plugins to see if this resolves the problem? If this works,
   re-activate the plugins one by one until you find the problematic plugin(s).
 * – switching to the default theme to rule out any theme-related problems?
 * – [resetting the plugins folder](http://codex.wordpress.org/FAQ_Troubleshooting#How_to_deactivate_all_plugins_when_not_able_to_access_the_administrative_menus.3F)
   by FTP or phpMyAdmin? Sometimes, an apparently inactive plugin can still cause
   problems.

 * Thanks for the quick reply, this was happening before any plugins were activated.
   Also I just changed it back to the default theme and it is still not working.
 * The widges are not moving the cursor just highlights everything instead of moving
   the widget.

 * Try re-uploading the wp-admin and wp-includes folders from a **fresh** download
   of WP 2.8.5

 * still not working, would this have anything to do with copying all my files from
   one server to another? I just updated the wp-config file, am I missing something?

 * Was it working OK on the other server? Did you just re-use the WP files to run
   a fresh install or did you port the db over too?

 * It was working on the old site but I hadn’t upgraded. It was also ‘windows’ not‘
   linux’. I changed from ‘windows’ to ‘linux’ because I read that it could cause
   problems when uploading files. So what i did was just copy everything from the
   server, via ftp and then re-copy everything back to the new server via ftp with
   the changed wp-config file with the new ‘mysql’ info.

 * But you ran wp-admin/install.php on the new server, yes? Did you import any content?

 * Not that I’m aware of. Most of my WP sites run on Linux servers and I’ve not 
   had any problems.
