$_session - Ugh!

Hey.

Okay, its late so I thought I'd explain this in pictures :P

Here is logout.php:

PHP Code:


			
<?php



require_once("conf_global.php");



  $_SESSION['is_logged_in'] = 0;

  $_SESSION['username'] = "Guest";



    session_destroy();



    echo $_SESSION['is_logged_in'] ;

    echo $_SESSION['username'];

?>

and the part of login.php specific to setting Session Vars:

PHP Code:


			
if($login){

                            

                            $_SESSION['is_logged_in'] = 1;

                            $_SESSION['username'] = "$_POST[user]";

                            

                            echo '<h1>Thank you for logging in</h1>';                

                            echo '<div class="mainContent">';

                            echo 'Thank you, <strong class="orange">'. $username . ' </strong>you are now logged in. You are being redirected to your user panel.';

                            echo '<meta http-equiv="refresh" content="3;url=usercp.php">';

                            echo '</div>';

                        }

And the part in usercp.php

PHP Code:


			
<strong>Logged In As: </strong> <span class="orange"><?php echo $_SESSION['username']; ?></span>

I dont see what I'm doing wrong: do you?

Thanks a bunch :)
