Sorry, I should have been clearer. Strictly speaking this is an IIS
question, not a PHP question, but I don't know where else to ask.
We're using IIS, and the team lead has settled on windows domain
authentication for 'logging into' the system. This means that only IE can
be used unless I can figure out a way to get IIS to ask non-IE browsers to
authenticate themselves. The 'user and password' database is the windows
domain controller.
If this is not an acceptable place to ask this, please point me towards
somewhere that I can.
Thanks,

P.S. Sorry Manuel, I accidentally replied to you instead of the list the
first time.

You don't need Apache .htaccess to authenticate anybody. You can do it
all in PHP. The only questions is where is the user and password
database that you want to authenticate against?
