When a directory is protected with an .htaccess file,
the browser launches a username/password request
dialog box to be filled in before content in the
directory is accessible.
I want to use a log-in form of my own, bypassing the
dialog box.
The reason is that I want to maintain a member record
of username, password, number of log-ins, demographic
information, and email address (to have the ability to
email the password to the member when requested). When
a member logs in with the form, the script does
whatever it needs to do to allow the browser to enter
the .htaccess passworded directory.
I'm clueless about how to do the log-in.
Any tips about where to do research, which modules to
use, and other things I may need to know to write this
script would be much appreciated.
If anyone knows of an example script I can learn from
that does something similar to what I'm trying to do,
please let me know where I can obtain a copy.
Thank you all in advance,
Anodesan
