Seeing I got caught off-guard with a little disaster yesterday (all good training I'm sure), I thought I would mention something to be aware of. When I installed my Joomla a few days ago and played around with it, I did the upgrade from 3.62 to 3.63 and quit for the day. The next day, (yesterday) I went to add some modules and had some weird problems where the editor would open briefly, then the page went to a white background with a small drop down box in the upper left corner. I was clueless. I tried deleting the 2 Joomla cache options but it did not fix anything. So I did my first Akeeba restore and botched it by not entering the correct passwords due to my pen covering up the last character of them. :S So I restarted from scratch and installed Joomla, updated Joomla, and then my templates and modules and plugins. Same problem. I googled it and found that there was in fact a problem with Joomla 3.63 where the fix was to delete your BROWSER CACHE. That fixed it. Just a heads up. CTRL-F5 with Firefox deletes the cache but I recommend you do it while on the modules page as that was my experience anyhow.

p.s. I just signed on to my wifes Joomla site and updated Joomla to 3.63 and went to the modules page and clicked on a module and it happened there too. The fix worked as I explained by hitting the CTRL-F5 after closing the window and going back to the modules page. Hope that helps.

Was NOT fixed in Joomla 3.6.4!! The only think that works is to clear both the Joomla cache and the browser cache. Fun!
