 This issue has happened consistently in 2.7 with various theme preview
 plugins, and now it's happening in 2.8 with no plugins.

 In WP 2.8, I would choose a theme to test. What comes up in the preview
 window is my current theme. I have 8 different themes in the themes folder
 that I wanted to test, but the same result occurs. Now if I explicit
 choose the theme name on the upper left of the preview window (which has
 the name of the theme I want to test, but displaying the current theme),
 then from that point on it would be the "current" theme that would display
 whenever I attempt to preview a new theme.

 My website is http//www.urbanlandscapes.org. The index.php file is located
 outside of the wordpress directory and located on the same root level as
 the wordpress directory folder. I suspect that when this happens, for some
 reason something breaks in the print preview because it is expecting to
 find the index.php file inside the wordpress folder.

 I'm not sure if this is the case, but here's hoping that there's a remedy
 for this issue. I can't be the only person running into this issue, and
 the support forum seems to be littered with people having similar issues.
 Also, I did go on the wordpress IRC channel, and the person attempting to
 help me could find no obvious errors after checking things out.

 Oh, and I did deactivate all plugins, but still the same results.

 Thanks for looking into this for me!
