I've been following this YouTube tutorial, and up to the end it works great. I've made a CMS that can display the posts, delete the posts, display categories, add categories and edit categories.
The tutorial ends there, so I had to improvise and create the edit post function myself. It didnt work. I've got some problems with 'header already send out' but i'll get to that later :p. My edit.php (html -> view source) looks like this:

Notice how the value="" is empty, and the loop for posts.php page is echoed.And this is the actual PHP code: (edit.php)
<?php
session_start();
include ('inc/functions.php');
if(isset($_SESSION['user'])) {
$post2 = getPosts($_GET['id']);

Can anyone help me with this?
But if you see errors, I can help you work them out.
