One of my websites, w8pgw.org, was running on a fairly old version of Drupal, so when I saw that 5.0 had just been released, I thought now's the time to upgrade. Since it was recommended that I upgrade to the latest 4.x version, I downloaded and installed 4.7.5.
I got everything working, EXCEPT "clean URLs," which were working in the last installation. With clean URLs enabled, funny things happen. The home page looks fine, but when I click on a "read more" link, the formatting goes away. For example, with clean URLs disabled, http:// www.w8pgw.org/node/83 looks fine, but with clean URLs enabled, the page doesn't seem to be picking up the theme.
Another odd thing is that when I run the clean URL test, it seems to pass the test fine, but when the settings admin page reloads, it's also lost the theme.
Any ideas?

The problem must be your theme. Your source html contains URLs such as:
@import "/node/misc/drupal.css"; @import "/node/themes/foundation/style.css"; < img src="/node/themes/arrow/images/arrow_logo.gif"
This suggests that you have relative links which are appended to the path of the page you are viewing ('/node' is the default front page). You have to (a) Use a theme compatible with 4.7 (which uses '$base_url ."yourlink"). (b) In the content, don't use links such as src="files/myfile" but src="/files/myfile".

Well, I've just installed the foundation theme, which is supposed to be usable with 4.7.x, and it's still doing funny things.

Hmm... you are right, it does not seem to be your theme's problem. I can see that '/node' appears ok but '/node/83' appends '/node' to your file paths, which is strange.
Is your .htaccess file present? Is it the default one (unmodified?). What $base_url (if any) have you set in settings.php?
