This is a problem I had with my onw control panel for letting logged in users use phpmyAdmin. I just setted in the redirection script the $_SERVER['PHP_AUTH_USER'] and $_SERVER['PHP_AUTH_PW'] so the popup dont show up. But if cpanel dont use PHP, and just passwd file with an .htaccess file, NO WAY to accomplish what you want. I've spent hours trying to figure it out. I also tried to set some vars in the HTTP headers and then redirect using mod_rewrite of apache, and nothing, no way.
Please, let us know if you find the solution. Thanks a lot! H Marino On Fri, 9 Apr 2004 01:12:25 +0200, Ryan A wrote: > > My questions: > > How do I know where to send the data?

It forbids to set username and password in a url. Yep, had that problem. MS always to the rescue to complicate and screw up set standards. Any work arounds on how to do it if the person is running IE with the latest patch?
