Strange syntax -- I'd prefer:
if ($_POST['password'] != "")

To cover all bases, you need to include the SID constant here, so it still
works for people who don't accept cookies. Oh, and the header name must be
Location (note capital L) to conform with the standard, and the URL should
be an absolute one -- some fussy browsers won't do the redirection properly
if this isn't 100% correct:
header("Location: http://your.site.name/path/to/authPage.php?".SID);
Cheers!
