I made some very minor changes to the plugin. When debugging some other stuff I noticed the plugin uses the functions register_sidebar_widget and register_widget_control. They are deprecated since WordPress 2.8. I replaced the functions with wp_register_sidebar_widget and wp_register_widget_control.

I found that some CSS settings for the theme I was using made this widget look wrong. I added a custom CSS file to the widget and fixed the issues I encountered. The following are relative to the 2.3.1 version of the Collapsible Archive Widget plugin.

Here are the changes I made to the collapsible-archive.php file:
