It looks like there is a lost "a" in the middle of it, This is making the <body> of the page start early. I am not sure what would cause it, seems like a accidental keypress. Removing the "a" should fix the problem... -Manu  <meta name="description" content="on Education, Technology and More" /> <meta name="keywords" content="educational technology, teaching, technology integration, lesson plans, teacher education, professional development, instructional design, clif mims, resources, research, Christian" />  <link rel="stylesheet" href="http://clifmims.com/blog/wp-content/plugins/contact-form-7/stylesheet.css" type="text/css" /><script type='text/javascript' src='http://clifmims.com/blog/wp-content/plugins/contact-form-7/contact-form-7.js'></script> <script type="text/javascript" src="http://clifmims.com/blog/wp-content/plugins/flash-video-player/swfobject.js"></script> a <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="http://clifmims.com/blog/wp-content/plugins/openid/f/openid.min.css?ver=518" /><script type="text/javascript" src="http://clifmims.com/blog/wp-content/plugins/podpress/podpress.js"></script> <script type="text/javascript"></script> <link rel="stylesheet" href="http://clifmims.com/blog/wp-content/plugins/podpress/podpress.css" type="text/css" /> <link href="http://free-video-comments-at.riffly.com/static/css/api/2/wp.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" /> <script type="text/javascript" src="http://free-video-comments-at.riffly.com/static/js/api/2/wp.js"></script> cowboy706 on "Plugin Causing text to display in header" http://forums.sharethis.com/topic/plugin-causing-text-to-display-in-header#post-958 Thu, 20 Nov 2008 08:15:20 +0000 cowboy706 958@http://forums.sharethis.com/ Thanks, Manu.

I'm using a custom theme I built with a couple of jquery corner rounding actions that happen inside of a $(document).ready() method call. If I remove the statement and just place the cornering functions in a script tag at the bottom of the document, it works. But if I have that document ready method ANYWHERE in the document (header or content, wherever) then ShareThis gets a "SHARETHIS is undefined" error and the page won't even load.

One thing we noticed when looking at your sites that are having problems, is that the javascript and css files are not showing up in the header section of the page. From our experience this is caused by the wp_head() function not being called in header.php of your theme. We would recommend that you check to see if this core Wordpress function is being called. If it is being called then we have bigger problems, but we are guessing that making sure that this function is there will fix your problem. Please let us know if this fixes your problem, and if not we can discuss how to proceed from here.
