Drupal localhost redirecting to www.localhost.com

Question

I am working on a drupal site which I checked out (svn) to my localhost.

Now the problem is that when I go to:

http://www.site.com

Answer 1

I finally found the reason behind this huge problem.

It was the css and js optimization that was messing everything up. I set those two to off and then copied the database to the localhost version of the site and all worked out great!!!
