I realize that this is not related to any of the tutorials, so let me know if I should and I will go elsewhere with this.
I am having a problem with a couple of my sites (self-hosted). Namely, the admin control panel is not rendering properly. Both sites render a blank white page with the Joomla security feed title but no content. One site renders the security feed title (no content) and logged in users (with username hyperlinked).
When I look at the page source, I see this:
<div id="content-pane" class="pane-sliders"><div class="panel"><h3 class="jpane-toggler title" id="cpanel-panel-feed"><span>Joomla Security Feed</span></h3><div class="jpane-slider content"><div style="direction: ltr; text-align: left">
and that's all. The other site shows this:
<div id="content-pane" class="pane-sliders"><div class="panel"><h3 class="jpane-toggler title" id="cpanel-panel-logged"><span>Logged in Users</span></h3><div class="jpane-slider content">
<form method="post" action="index.php?option=com_users">
<table class="adminlist">
<thead>
<tr>
<td class="title">
<strong>#</strong>
</td>
<td class="title">
<strong>Name</strong>
</td>
<td class="title">
<strong>Group</strong>
</td>
<td class="title">
<strong>Client</strong>

<td class="title">
<strong>Last Activity</strong>

<td class="title">
<strong>Logout</strong>
</td>
</tr>
</thead>
<tbody>
<tr>
<td width="5%">

<td>
<a href="index.php?option=com_users&task=edit&cid[]=64" title="Edit User">removed</a> </td>
<td>
Super Administrator </td>
<td>

<td>

<td>
</td>
</tr>
</tbody>
</table>
<input type="hidden" name="task" value="" />
<input type="hidden" name="client" value="" />
<input type="hidden" name="cid[]" id="cid_value" value="" />
<input type="hidden" name="d00c6bc97e258db95a86fddc3174e8f4" value="1" /></form>
</div></div><div class="panel"><h3 class="jpane-toggler title" id="cpanel-panel-feed"><span>Joomla Security</span></h3><div class="jpane-slider content"><div style="direction: ltr; text-align: left">
When I view the source code, the page name is index.php.htm or administrator.htm, rather than "sitename Administration.htm."
Anyone want to help me to think about this?

P.S.
I forgot mention that I can access everything on the backend by direct url - for example index.php?option=com_config for the configuration page. The problem is only the Control Panel.
The front end works fine.
I have replaced the entire site with a clean copy of 1.5.15 to no avail. I have also tried using the aplite admin template, but this didn't help either.
