hi,
i think $PHP_AUTH_USER will only get unset the next time session_start() is
called. try to use a header("location: ...") to direct your logout page to
your index page and then print $PHP_AUTH_USER right after session_start()..
by right, you should not have any value...
i faced the same problem and was puzzled for quite some time, but i think
this works..
