i have called the page admin_login.php

<?php

session_start();

if(!isset($_SESSION["manager"])){

header("location: admin_login.php");

exit();

}

// Be sure to check that this manager SESSION value is in fact in the database

$managerID = preg_replace('#[^0-9]#i',",$_SESSION["id"]); //filter everyhting but numbers and letters

$manager = preg_replace('#[^A_Za-z0-9]#i',",$_SESSION["manager"]); //filter everything but numbers and letters

$password = preg_replace('#[^A_Za-z0-9]#i',",$_SESSION["password"]); //filter everything but numbers and letters

//Run mySQL query to be sure that this person is an admin and that their password session varequals the database information

//Connect to the MySQL database

include "../storescripts/connect_to_mysql.php";

$sql= mysql_query("SELECT * FROM admin WHERE id='$managerID'AND username='$manager' AND password='$password' LIMIT 1"); //query the person --make sure person exists in database----

$existCount= mysql_num_rows($sql); //count the row nums

if($existCount==0){ //evaluate the count

header("location: ../index.php);

exit();

}

?>

You do have a couple errors:

-- In the three preg_replace() lines, you are missing a second quote: $managerID = preg_replace('#[^0-9]#i',"",$_SESSION["id"]); (make sure you add the second quote to all three lines)

-- In the header() line, you are also missing a closing quote: header("location: ../index.php");

These are the only things I see at first glance, at least.
