Set up your .htaccess file as usual, pointing to a userfile created with
htpasswd. Place the .htaccess file in the directory with your PHP
script(s), and users will be automatically prompted for username/password
before being served any file in that directory (at least the first time
during that session, anyway).
Within your PHP script(s), you can determine the user by reading the
REMOTE_USER http environment variable:
$user = getenv("REMOTE_USER");
