Worked perfectly! Thanks so much jrav001.

Well, I guess like most other ajax/slideshow questions here in the forums…nothing but crickets…LOL!

I broke the index.php file in the theme yfa.com, it has this in it:
<?php get_header(); ?>
<?php
/*
This version of the front page template
provides the latest post in the Feature category
for the Main Feature section.
*/
// Feature category query — displayed later in template
$feature_cat = 1; // set to the Feature category ID #
$main_query = new WP_Query(“showposts=1&cat=$feature_cat”);
$categories = wp_get_object_terms($post->ID, ‘category’);
foreach( $categories as $category ) {
if ( $category->term_id != $feature_cat ) {
$cat_offset = $category->term_id;
break;
}
}
?>

window.addEvent(‘domready’, startGallery);

the re-load did not work, I still can not access anything on the admiin panel once I log-in. The clean un-edited index.php file is not fixing the issue, and unfortunately I did hit save.

Mahtab,
Thanks so much I will send this info to you in just a few minutes. I really would just like to know what I’m doing wrong so I can stop doing it in the future and judging by validator, I’m doing a whole lot of wrong things in my posts.:)

I reduced the width from 910 to 890:

#content {
width: 890px;
margin: 0px auto 0px;
padding: 10px 0 0 0;
}

but the sidebars are still falling.:(

It’s http://yawdfromabroad.com

LOL! OK, I used to watch the Fraggles so I should know that…I checked out your site Just A Stupid Girl.com. I’ll be coming back. Once again, thanks so much. I really appreciate it!
