session_destroy help

[shadiadiph]

on my site the user can login and the session is registered on the checkuser page and diverts to the index page.

 

code in checkuser

session_register("username");
session_register("password"); 
$updatesql ="update tblclientdetails set dtlogged = now() where username='$username'";
$DB_site->query($updatesql);
header("location:index.php");

 

 

index.php

if(!session_is_registered("username")){
header("location:login.php");
}

 

problem I have is if the user just goes from the index page to say yahoo.com and then back to the index page they are still logged in the session is still active it is only not active if they open a new browser window and try or click logout. How do I make it so when they navifgate away from my site the session gets destroyed??
