OpenGL cube's faces mess up

Can someone give me the code that draws a cube in OpenGL with each face a different colour because I did it with rectangles not polygons and the faces go through each other. Thanks alot!

Post the code you have and we may correct it. Could be the z-buffer, is it enabled?

Code:

glPushMatrix();
            
            
            glColor3f(1.0f, 0.0f, 0.0f);
            glBegin(GL_TRIANGLE_STRIP);                            //back
                 glVertex3f(-1.0f, 0.0f, -1.0f);
                 glVertex3f(-1.0f, -1.0f, -1.0f);
                 glVertex3f(0.0f, 0.0f, -1.0f);
                 glVertex3f(0.0f, -1.0f, -1.0f);
            glEnd();
            glColor3f(1.0f, 1.0f, 0.0f);
            glBegin(GL_TRIANGLE_STRIP);                            //left
                 glVertex3f(-1.0f, 0.0f, -1.0f);
                 glVertex3f(-1.0f, -1.0f, -1.0f);
                 glVertex3f(-1.0f, 0.0f, 0.0f);
                 glVertex3f(-1.0f, -1.0f, 0.0f);
            glEnd();
            glColor3f(1.0f, 0.0f, 1.0f);
            glBegin(GL_TRIANGLE_STRIP);                            //right
                 glVertex3f(0.0f, 0.0f, -1.0f);
                 glVertex3f(0.0f, -1.0f, -1.0f);
                 glVertex3f(0.0f, 0.0f, 0.0f);
                 glVertex3f(0.0f, -1.0f, 0.0f);
            glEnd();
            glColor3f(0.0f, 1.0f, 1.0f);
            glBegin(GL_TRIANGLE_STRIP);                            //bottom
                 glVertex3f(-1.0f, -1.0f, -1.0f);
                 glVertex3f(-1.0f, -1.0f, 0.0f);
                 glVertex3f(0.0f, -1.0f, -1.0f);
                 glVertex3f(0.0f, -1.0f, 0.0f);
            glEnd();
            glColor3f(0.0f, 0.0f, 1.0f);
            glBegin(GL_TRIANGLE_STRIP);                            //top
                 glVertex3f(-1.0f, 0.0f, -1.0f);
                 glVertex3f(-1.0f, 0.0f, 0.0f);
                 glVertex3f(0.0f, 0.0f, -1.0f);
                 glVertex3f(0.0f, 0.0f, 0.0f);
            glEnd();
            glColor3f(1.0f, 0.5f, 0.5f);
            glBegin(GL_TRIANGLE_STRIP);                            //front
                 glVertex3f(-1.0f, 0.0f, 0.0f);
                 glVertex3f(-1.0f, -1.0f, 0.0f);
                 glVertex3f(0.0f, 0.0f, 0.0f);
                 glVertex3f(0.0f, -1.0f, 0.0f);
            glEnd();
            glPopMatrix();

That's my cube. If you add some rotatef's then you'll see what I mean. And about the z-buffer, could you expand, I'm learning OpenGL and the more explaining the better!

Add the following to your initialization routine.

glEnable(GL_DEPTH_TEST);
glDepthFunc(GL_LEQUAL);

It might not matter that much at this point, but for future reference, try calling you're glBegin once at the beginning of ALL the triangles, and glEnd and the end of ALL the triangles. Calling them for each face will eventually slow you down.

Thanks guys, I'll try the commands at initialization. I'm not at my computer right now but I'll post back if it works or not.
