 * I am trying to “widgetize” my footer bar. I am using a tutorial I found at [this website](http://help-developer.com/index.php/2008/07/creating-a-widget-ready-footer-in-wordpress/).
   I am using the “Scarlett” theme from web2feel.com. In the tutorial I got everything
   working except the function. It tells me to replace the function there with a
   different one, but the one they want me to replace is different. I am not skilled
   in php at all so any help would be greatly appreciated. The current code in the
   functions.php is
 *     ```
       <?php
       require_once(TEMPLATEPATH . '/controlpanel.php'); 
   
       if ( function_exists('register_sidebars') )
           register_sidebars(2);
   
       		register_sidebar(array('name'=>'Sidebar 3',
       		'before_widget' => '',
       		'after_widget' => '</li></ul></div>',
       		'before_title' => '<div class="sidebar3"><h2>',
       		'after_title' => '</h2><ul><li>',
       	)); 
   
       ?>
       ```
   
 * Thanks for all yor help in advance!
