I'm trying out the login / logout methods from a simple webpage, and am
having some real trouble here.

My main page has a link to /accounts/login, setup according to the
docs, allows the user to fill in a name and password, hit OK, and viola
they are logged in.

On the main page, i check to see if the user is logged in or not:

        {% if user.is_authenticated  %}
                You're logged in
        {% else %}
                you're not logged in
        {% endif %}

the problem is, this code always says they are not logged in, even
though, I know I just logged in.

So, I write a link to check the user logged in:

        <a href="check/"> Check user </a>

in my views.py i have :

def check(request):
        return HttpResponse("The current user is %s" % request.user.username)

And that always shows me the correct user that's logged in

WHAT AM I MISSING HERE?
