try this code in the functions.php file

<?php
if ( function_exists('register_sidebar') )
{
register_sidebar(array('name'=>'Left Sidebar'));
register_sidebar(array('name'=>'Right Sidebar'));
}
?>

and this in the sidebar – make sure to change it to ‘Right Sidebar’ in your second div

<?php if ( !function_exists('dynamic_sidebar')
        || !dynamic_sidebar('Left Sidebar') ) : ?>
<?php endif; ?>

the beauty of this is that you can name your sidebars – makes for easier editing

dont forget though that using paypal etc, their servers are secure, and that is where the transactions take place, not on your own site.

Are you altering this using the widgets admin panel? If so, wherever that sidebar is called for, the changes will show up.

I appear to be having a problem with the WP.com stats plugin too; i know ive had visitors cause ive had comments, but the stats page isn’t showing any visits at all.

Also google analytics shows visits.

any ideas?

have a look at Adobe’s Apollo, you could build some software yourself like the ebay model?! an easy option would be to just write in wordpad and copy it over when your connected. But seriously, if you build a desktop version of wordpress on Apollo, a lot of people will love you!

the tags that are allowed are defined in wp-includes/kses.php

i dont see what the problem is…looks ok to me. Could you describe what you see?
