Default Upgraded to 2.5

Maybe I did too many things at once but I had been wanting to change my theme and I had been wanting to upgrade to 2.5 so i did both at once and then I upgraded all my plug ins. I thought If I am going to do a bunch of maintenace I'm doing it all at once. Well now look. I think my problems are small but take a look at my site.

France Tales

My tall Google ad stays onscreen

My Amazon box leaves a chain behind when you scroll down

A few other strange things occur.

There are probably other things but I don't want find them out yet.

any ideas on what to do?

I'm going to up load another theme to try out and see if it is an incompatiblility with 2.5, although I specifically searched for 2.5 compatible themes.

I updated all the plug ins thinking that could cause a problem as well.

I'm at a loss and a little over my head.

Just confirmed you switched your theme by reading the comments on your upgraded WP 2.5 post. I like that theme by the way. I might have a use for it on a idea I have.

Default Switched theme

Well I have a text widget in the sidebar that held the Adsense code and another one that held the code for the Amazon Widget and when I removed them the problems disappeared. Later today I am going to ad them back one at a time to try to see if I can make it work.

When I add Adsense I usually just add a text widget to the sidebar and put the code there. Is there a better way to do it? Maybe that is the problem. I also have the Google Adsense manager plug in but have been unable to get it to help me add ads to the sidebars, I can add it to posts, but not to the sidebars.

Another strange thing happened. On the menu at the top the last item, "Why do the French love to cut in Line" that is a post and never was a page so I can figure out when I did the upgrade how it could have "become" a page.

Thanks for all the help so far.
