On my website, http://www.deepsoft.com/ the admin bar is missing on the front side pages. It is fine on the back end pages (dashboard, etc.). I am using a custom theme (much hacked). I am not sure what the problem is. It does leave a space for the bar, but it is just white space. Is there something I should check for in my theme code that would cause this problem?
My header.php file looks like this:

Quick check - Switch to the Twenty Ten theme and see if it works.

If it does work with twentyten, your theme is probably missing one or both snippets of code required
wp_head in header.php
wp_footer in footer.php

I switched to Twenty Ten theme and the admin bar shows up. Obviously there is something wrong in my theme code. What should I be looking for? I searched the code (both the .php files and the .css files) of some other themes on other sites I manage (they all use 'stock' public themes) where the admin bar is working and it doesn't *look* like anything is missing (I did a few fixes to match the other themes' header.php files (class for the body tag, use/ordering of the various header... divs, etc.), but that did not help. I fiddled with the style.css file, in case something there was being fishy, but no help there either.

Fixed! I add added wp_footer to my footer.php and it works now. Thanks!

my link above has it all for ya
I would suspect <?php wp_footer(); ?> is missing, above the </body> tag
EDIT: I see ya got it, cool!
Most likely wp_footer is missing from footer.php. If it is, try adding <?php wp_footer();> to that file just before <?body></html>.
