Widget Function Help

I am trying to “widgetize” my footer bar. I am using a tutorial I found at this website. 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!
