I'm new to WP but I've been able to get it installed, add content, etc., but even though all my pages show up fine if they're like this:
http://www.donkehote.com/2012/03/01/how-i-learned-to-never-barter-for-landscaping/
...but if you simply type in this:
...all you get is a blank white home page that has a vibrating URL like it's trying to load something but it's stuck in a weird loop.
Please help!
You must have a redirect on the page (has to be before any conntent is output). Look for any code that says either redirect() or wp_redirect() in your header.php or index.php page.

Sorry for being such a newbie, but how exactly do I do that? Thanks for your help!

Is there any way to fix this without losing all my content and starting from scratch?
You need to have a look in your theme folder at the index.php and header.php files (and propably functions.php as well) - Search for the code I posted above, and if there is any, post that section of code back here and we'll help you figure out if it shoul be there or not.
Thanks.
Try:
- switching to the Twenty Eleven theme by renaming your current theme's folder in wp-content/themes and adding "-old" to the end of the folder name using FTP or whatever file management application your host provides.
- resetting the plugins folder by FTP or phpMyAdmin.

Thanks for all your replies everyone, but I'm lost. With my workload I just don't have time to figure this out, as it's all greek to me. I've tried to figure out how to view the source code for the files "wp-blog-header.php" and "index.php" and all I get is this:
<?php
/**
* Front to the WordPress application. This file doesn't do anything, but loads
* wp-blog-header.php which does and tells WordPress to load the theme.
*
* @package WordPress
*/
/**
* Tells WordPress to load the WordPress theme and output it.
*
* @var bool
*/
define('WP_USE_THEMES', true);
/** Loads the WordPress Environment and Template */
require('./wp-blog-header.php');
?>
I'm done spinning my wheels. I'm going to search my local craigslist for a wordpress programmer that I can pay to help me fix this. Thanks again!
