PHP: Why does my code work in index.php but not a widget?

This may not be the answer you asked for, but could you try Running it in PHP Code Widget and check if it works? If it does, there is probable something wrong with your widget generation code. If it does not, try adding that to sidebar.php and not index.php and check the results again.
