 * when i go to edit pages in in my wordpress dashboard the screen ends up funny.
 * i.e the side widgets showing publish etc on the 2 column screen cover part of
   the main text field and the side scroller of the main text field, does anyone
   else have this problem or know why its caused?
 * I do have screenshots which show the error better if anyone needs to have a look.
 * Any help i can get would be appreciated.
 * Thanks
 * Dave

 * Can you replicate the problem using the default Twenty Twelve theme with **all**
   plugins deactivated?

 * I haven’t actually tried yet. I didnt want to risk loosing my pages and theme
   settings. Its already taken me a month to get the site to where its is.

 * All changes should only be temporary.
