    I'd start by disabling the plugin. If that doesn't work, I'd upload your backup. You did make a backup, right?

    2.3 has some compatibility issues with custom plugins. I assume you have some. So try disabling plugins one by and see which is causing. Then try upgrading that plugin.

    From the error code the problem is caused by the clashing of WP template engine with the template itself. This is mainly caused by un-cleaned coded template. Try to switch your template back to the WP default template, upgrade, then turning on your fav template. If the problem is from the template, well, there nothing you can do except changing the template.

    Yep, your theme has some coding problems...jump to default theme...then find what the problem is with the theme...Might pay to delete the theme you are using off the server and upload a fresh copy.

    The string of coding only appears on my homepage, but not on individual post pages ... I guess if I have to I will download the theme again

    I think the problem is more "deeper" than just error on your homepage.

    Also, if the theme/template is conflicting with WP template engine, re-downloading the theme is not going to solve the problem. You might want to change the theme. Or you could point the error to the theme creator and hope s/he fix it quickly.
