Wordpress Breaking Down

    Anyone know why my page is breaking down:

    http://www.danielmassicotte.com/

    ??

    This morning I did 3 blog posts around 8am. It was normal this afternoon, but now it's all messed up.

    I've had this problem once before, and I fixed it by deactivating all the plugins and thesis.

    Anyone know what the real problem is?

    I can see it properly by typing your blog url. Are you talking about homepage or inside admin page ?

    DON.

    Just the home page, but the admin page does the same thing too.

    It shows up fine in Internet Explorer though... it's just FF that it shows up as if there was no css.

    Well I think your theme is not compatible with FireFox. We know it happens with many themes but mostly they not working well in IE but I also found few which is not compatible with FF!

    Are you using FF 3 or 3.5? I actually went back to FF 3.0 when I discovered the SwitchProxy didn't work with the new 3.5.

    You theme is compatible with Firefox. My guess is that you have a bad plugin installed.

    Disable them one by one until things look right for you...

    I'm not quite sure what it could be but its either your theme, wordpress settings or a server problem. Try contacting your Hosting Company if you installed it via Fantasico from Cpanel, or try going on WordPress forums and ask the community about the problem.

    Here's what I've tried so far:

    * Run CCleaner (and checked all the extra boxes) in both applications and computer (so FF). Restarted my computer. Nothing. still the same
    * Turned off Thesis. Nothing
    * Deactivated all my plugins. Nothing.
    * Restarted the computer. Still Nothing.

    I'm going to do some css tests now. It looks like a CSS problem...

    Everything is showing up like the screenshot...even the admin panel.

    EDIT: Actually, it can't be css since this site:

    http://adservices.zango.com/

    looks like this:

    http://www.danielmassicotte.com/brokenzango.jpg

    but IE it looks fine. Arghhh!!

    I also tried re-installing FF 3.5 & Reboot.

    You're on to something. I just disabled Ad-Block Plus and it works now.

    Thing is, I've had Ad-block Plus installed for a long time and it worked fine before. Any ideas?

    It's the CSS file that doesn't get loaded somehow, adblock may be blocking the CSS file which would explain why your site has no styling. But for what reason, I do not know.

    Hmmm, maybe I can create some kind of exception. Now I'm seeing ads all over the place... looks like the adv. industry is really hitting weight loss. Hmm, didn't know that.

    Thank you for the suggestions everyone. I'm going to keep tweaking ABP and FF to see if I can get them both working.

    Alternatively I suppose I could always go to Lifehacker.com and install a multiple user platform for Firefox so I can have different plugin settings dependin on what I want to do (work, browse net, etc.) since I normally have to turn off ABP in order to view my blog properly.
