Setting environment variables

I've been trying to set some environment variables. I've added them 
to .bash_profile in my home directory, like this:

PATH=/root/euphoria/bin:$PATH
EUDIR=/root/euphoria
BROWSER=dillo

export PATH EUDIR BROWSER

But it still doesn't work! The xfce help complains that it cannot find
any browser, and the euphoria programming language cannot find its
include files. I've also added the environment vars to my .bashrc,
with no success. I also cannot see them in any console or console 
emulator by typing "set|more".

What am I doing wrong?
