rotation axis

when i try to rotate my character, he rotates in all directions. i just want him to do a simple 90 degree turn to the right. i locked the certain rotate options in the channel box so i could have him rotate in that one direction. the blue and yellow, and red colors of the rotate tool are not where they are supposed to be. the yellow one is fine, but the other two are in the same spot. how do i fix this problem?user added image

Try changing the rotate tool to Global mode in the tool options.
