Hi all! I just installed WordPress for a new website: http://www.AlexandraEagle.com. The install went fine but when I login I get an expanded Admin layout, it doesn't look like the normal layout. The site itself looks fine, it is just the admin panel that isn't right. Take a look here: http://www.alexandraeagle.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/12/Problem.pdf
Is it a problem with 3.0.2.? I have installed WordPress a lot and never had this problem.

have you tried:
-clearing cache in your browser? To clear cache in your browser, press clrl+f5 keys simultaneously. Try different computer/different browser.
-deactivating ALL plugins temporarily to narrow down and possibly fix the problem . If the problem goes away, activate them individually to find the culprit?
If you don't have access to your admin area, try deactivating them manually via FTP or phpMyAdmin.
-switching to the default theme (Twenty Ten) for a moment by renaming your current theme's folder in wp-content/themes. The idea is to force WordPress to fall back to the default theme to rule out any theme-specific issue?
If you don't have access to your admin area, then access your server via FTP or SFTP or whatever file management application your host provides.
-if that does not resolve the issue, try increasing memory available for php.
I've upgraded 6 or 7 sites today and didn't have a problem in any of them. Try re-uploading the wp-admin and wp-includes folders from a fresh download of WordPress.

That kind of affect is usually a browser cache issue. Empty your cache and refresh.

Same here esmi - I manually updated my personal blog today, no issue whatsoever!

Tried it in Google Chrome, no go.
Tried it in Firefox, no go.
Tried it in IE...It WORKS!

I tried re-installing WordPress from the admin screen and FileZilla but that didn't work...In IE it looks fine.
Try re-uploading the wp-admin and wp-includes folders from a fresh download of WordPress using FTP (or whatever file management application your host provides).

@esmi - I just tried that again and no luck. It seems that IE is working fine though. Strange.

My problem seems now that pop-ups won't appear (adding media page pop-up) or I cannot drag and drop widgets and the drop down buttons don't work... :(

did you apply the first step to both FF and Chrome I suggested in my previous post above? That is:
-clearing cache in your browser? To clear cache in your browser, press clrl+f5 keys simultaneously. Try different computer/different browser.

Yep, I tried that in both. No go. The layout is still messed up.

Apparently - since you have no issue in IE - the issue seems to be with your FF and Chrome.

It would seem that way but the pop-up/widget/drop downs are not working in IE.

what you mean by expanded Admin layout? Please elaborate.

try:
-increasing memory available for php.
-adding this near the bottom of the wp-config.php:
define('CONCATENATE_SCRIPTS', false);
before this line: require_once

Thank you for trying to help me. I figured out when I tried "disable flash upload" for next gen gallery, that seemed to work better. So it seems flash isn't working on the site? Is there a way to fix this?

I tried to increase the memory in wp-config.php and the only line that mentions Memory Limit is:
// Set initial default constants including WP_MEMORY_LIMIT, WP_DEBUG, WP_CONTENT_DIR and WP_CACHE.
wp_initial_constants( );
Would it be somewhere else?
