Redirecting Admin

Posted on 16th Feb 2014 07:03 pm by admin

In my members table, I have a field called "perm" and it's set to zero for all members. However, I have two administrators, and theirs are set to 1.
I want my members page that shows up on login to redirect admins if their "perm" number is set to 1
Right now it's not having any errors, but it's not redirecting the admins.

Thank you!

Full code:
Code: <?php
// Connects to your Database

...

//checks cookies to make sure they are logged in
if(isset($_COOKIE['ID_staples_clubs']))
{
$username = $_COOKIE['ID_staples_clubs'];
$pass = $_COOKIE['Key_staples_clubs'];
$check = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM members WHERE username = '$username'")or die(mysql_error());
while($info = mysql_fetch_array( $check ))
{

//if the cookie has the wrong password, they are taken to the login page
if ($pass != $info['password'])
{ header("Location: login.php");
}

//otherwise they are shown the member area
else
{
$query = "SELECT clubs.*, members.* FROM clubs LEFT JOIN members ON members.club = clubs.id WHERE members.username = '{$_COOKIE['ID_staples_clubs']}'";
$result = mysql_query($query) or die(mysql_error());

while ($row = mysql_fetch_array($result)) {
//admin
if ($row['perm'] == 1) {
header("Location: admin.php");
}

//member
else {
echo "$row[name] <br />";
echo "Welcome, ";
echo "$row[adv] <br />";
echo "<a href=edititem.php?id=$row[club]>Edit Club</a>";
echo "<br />";
echo "<a href=changepass.php>Change password</a><br />";
echo "<a href=logout.php>Logout</a>";
}
}
}
}
}
else

//if the cookie does not exist, they are taken to the login screen
{
header("Location: login.php");
}
?>
Troublesome part:
Code: while ($row = mysql_fetch_array($result)) {
//admin
if ($row['perm'] == 1) {
header("Location: admin.php");
}

//member
else {
echo "$row[name] <br />";
echo "Welcome, ";
echo "$row[adv] <br />";
echo "<a href=edititem.php?id=$row[club]>Edit Club</a>";
echo "<br />";
echo "<a href=changepass.php>Change password</a><br />";
echo "<a href=logout.php>Logout</a>";
}
