can't send messages and $username isn't displayed

Time:12-04

I made a chat service in php. When you get to the chat, it says "Welcome, --Username--." My problem is I added a login field, now I can't send messages and the username isn't displayed. I've looked everywhere but it seems since my code is so "unique", nothing seems to be helping. --i didn't make this all on my own, I used someone else's code for the login and someone's code for the service itself.

login.php

<?php
    session_start();
    echo isset($_SESSION['login']);
    if(isset($_SESSION['login'])) {
      header('LOCATION:admin.php'); die();
    }
?>
