<?php
session_start();

include '../sbxr_connect.php';
include 'header.php';

$adminsql = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM admin") or die(mysql_error());
while($row = mysql_fetch_array($adminsql))
{
 $adminpassword = $row['adminpassword']; 
}



function adminLogin()
{
 global $notify;

?>

<table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" border="0" width="100%" height="100%">
<tr>
<td width="100%" height="100%" align="center" valign="middle">

 <table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" border="0" width="600" align="center">
 <tr>
 <td width="100%" class="contentbox" align="center">

   <font class="header2">
   admin login
   </font>

   <br />
   <br />

   <?php echo "$notify"; ?>

   <br />
   <br />

   <form method="post">
   <input name="passtry" type="password" maxlength="50" size="30">

   <br />
   <br />

   <input name="login" type="submit" value="Login">
   </form>

 </td>
 </tr>
 </table>

 <br />
 <br />

</td>
</tr>
</table>

<?php
}



function adminIndex()
{
?>

<table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" border="0" width="600" align="center">
<tr>
<td width="100%" class="contentbox">

 <center>
 <font class="header2">
 Welcome, admin!
 </font>
 </center>

 <br />

 Welcome to the admin control panel. From here you can change your admin password, configure general options, edit your shoutbox colors and style, edit shouts, ban IP's, add word censors, and more.

 <br />
 <br />

 Please use the menu at the top of this page in order to navigate through your control panel and administer.

</td>
</tr>
</table>

<?php
}



if (isset($_SESSION['adminpassword']))
{
 if ($_SESSION['adminpassword'] == $adminpassword)
 {
   $loggedin = true;
 }
}



if (isset($_POST['login']))
{
 if ($_POST['passtry'] == $adminpassword)
 {
   $_SESSION['adminpassword'] = $adminpassword;
 }
 else
 {
   $notify = "You have entered an invalid admin password, please try again";
 }
}
else
{
 $notify = "Please enter the admin password";
}



if ($loggedin == true)
{
 include 'admin_header.php';

 switch($_GET['edit']) 
 {
   case 'general':
     editGeneral();
     break;

   case 'style':
     editStyle();
     break;

   case 'shouts':
     editShouts();
     break;

   case 'bans':
     editBans();
     break;

   case 'censors':
     editCensors();
     break;

   default:
     adminIndex();

 }

 include 'admin_footer.php';
}
else
{
  adminLogin();
}



include 'footer.php';
?>

 

i know it is successfully getting the password out of the database, but it isnt taking me to the adminIndex page when I've logged in......any help would be greatly appreciated.
