you need single quotes around the variable name:

$_GET['action']

it makes a loop but they get staked on top of eachother they dont open like a normal link would and the other ones just refesh the page

index.php is including itself when action=main, which is causing the loop. call it main.php or index2.php or index.inc.php etc etc
