 * I’m sure this is a stupidly simple solution, but darned if I can figure it out.
 * When I enter the dashboard it looks like [this](http://screencast.com/t/qnYCDp0xihB).
 * I was using Chrome first – regular site looked good – as soon as I switched to
   the Dashboard it looked like this. If I click on one of the links (Add New Page/
   Post) the Dashboard looks normal. If I switch to any of the other sidebar items
   it goes back to this funky look.
 * The screen shot is from Firefox. Interestingly Safari has NO PROBLEM.
 * Running MAMP w/ fresh install of WP – install goes OK – with no problems. Like
   I said, in Safari – everything is OK
 * I’m sure I’m missing some configuration setting somewhere???
 * Thanks for any ideas.
 * John
 * PS – Oh Yeah, I did a fresh install of Chrome – still same thing.

 * Well, I think I resolved the issue.
 * I rebooted my iMac. When I logged back into “localhost” and went to the admin
   panel, the problem was still there. I refreshed the page a couple of times (I
   had done that before to no avail) and, suddenly, everything started working again.
 * Go figure.
 * Maybe I’ll learn enough in the future to be able to figure out what’s going on.
   Clearly it was a Chrome/Firefox issue – so maybe that will be a help. Just wasn’t
   reading the config files properly – who the heck knows.
