 * Hello,
 * I want to add the below code to my sidebar.php by hardcoding it instead of adding
   a text widget because the formatting of my text widgets is different.
 *     ```
       <table border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0"><tr><td align="center"><script type="text/javascript" src="http://www.worldtimeserver.com/clocks/embed.js"></script><script type="text/javascript" language="JavaScript">objGB = new Object;objGB.wtsclock = "wtsclock024.swf";objGB.color = "c01800";objGB.wtsid = "GB";objGB.width = 175;objGB.height = 175;objGB.wmode = "transparent";showClock(objGB);</script></td></tr><tr><td align="center"><h2>London</h2></td></tr></table>
       ```
   
 * My current sidebar.php is:
 *     ```
       <ul id="sidebarleft">
       <?php if ( function_exists('dynamic_sidebar') && dynamic_sidebar(1) )  : else : ?>
        <li id="pages"><?php _e('<h2>Pages</h2>'); ?>
       <ul>
       <?php wp_list_pages('sort_column=menu_order&title_li='); ?>
       </ul>
        </li>
   
        <li id="categories"><?php _e('<h2>Categories</h2>'); ?>
       	<ul>
       	<?php wp_list_cats(''); ?>
       	</ul>
        </li>
   
        <li id="archives"><?php _e('<h2>Archives</h2>'); ?>
        	<ul>
       	 <?php wp_get_archives('type=monthly'); ?>
        	</ul>
        </li>
   
       <?php endif; ?>
       		</ul>
       ```
   
 *  Now I have no idea about php so what modifications would I need to make for 
   that code to be displayed at the end of the sidebar widgets while it’s hard coded
   AND for the widgets in the sidebar to be displayed as well?
 * I would appreciate some help! Thanks in advance :).

 * You see the bit where it says:
    `<?php endif; ?>`
 * Put your code inside –
    `<li> </li>` – tags after that bit above, and you should
   be ready to go. It won’t validate (tables inside list items) but it will achieve
   what you want.
