I made some changes to my vbulletin forum templates, and then the css structure broke. I have reverted all files back to the original, and it still is not displaying properly. I have tried updating to the latest version of vbulletin, reverting stylevars, and nothing seems to be working.
Here is the link: http://forum.mrsjanuary.com
(http://forum.mrsjanuary.com)
This is where the issue seems to be:
"<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="http://forum.mrsjanuary.com/css.php?styleid=2&langid=1&d=1324358079&td=ltr&she et=bbcode.css,editor.css,popupmenu.css,reset-fonts.css,vbulletin.css,vbulletin-chrome.css,vbulletin-formcontrols.css," />"
Any help as to how to fix this would be much appreciciated!

Your site looks totally fine to me.

The layout of the forum is all over the place, especially if you click on a category, such as "Canadian Deals".
Do you have any url rewriting going on? I notice that a request for sheet=additional.css is returning "/* Unable to find css sheet */", which, looking at the code in css.php, should only happen if there is no "sheet=" specified on the url.
ETA: oh, I just noticed you have that message in the title. :o
Anyway, another possibility is that a plugin is messing thing up - did you try disabling all plugins (put define('DISABLE_HOOKS', true); at the top of config.php, under the <?php line)?

Tried the plugin solution.. no such luck. :(

It's indeed odd, but it appears to just be a vBulletin "thing".
Even the official vBulletin forum display the same message:
https://www.vbulletin.com/forum/css.php?styleid=12&langid=1&d=1323977744&td=ltr&sh eet=forumbits.css,forumhome.css,widgets.css,sideba r.css,options.css,tagcloud.css
https://www.vbulletin.com/forum/css.php?styleid=12&langid=1&d=1323977744&td=ltr&sh eet=bbcode.css,editor.css,popupmenu.css,reset-fonts.css,vbulletin.css,vbulletin-chrome.css,vbulletin-formcontrols.css,
It obviously isn't a problem, but if it bothers you maybe try storing it from the filesystem instead. If anything it'll use less resources at least. :)
Edit: I see what the issue is, it's because in the address bar, the browser doesn't parse "&" to "&" but it does when rendered within the document. Your problem is just a browser limitation and not an actual issue. :D
Example:
https://www.vbulletin.com/forum/css.php?styleid=12&langid=1&d=1323977744&td=ltr&sheet=forumbits.css,forumhome.css,widgets.css,side bar.css,options.css,tagcloud.css

Do you know if its possible to fix it? I'm trying to help her with this and no matter what you do it does not get fixed. I've viewed it in several browsers and get the same screwed up looking site. Even the default skin is messed up.

I have clicked all over your site and every page has been just fine for me. Are you sure it isn't something just happening to you?

Resolved now, thanks!
Hi MrsJanuary.
How did you fix the issue ?
I found this workaround : changing the value of "Store CSS Stylesheets as Files" to yes.
but I'm not sure that it is the best way.

The workaround gave me a bug on search.php pages with internal server error 500.
so I switch to another template :(
