Realized I forgot to mention what this code does.

It opens a password-protected page which contains a link to another page in the same password-protected folder and opens up in a new window.

The expected behavior is that the second page will open fine, since we're already authenticated to the security context. The actual behavior is that you get a 403 error.

Please, I've been trying to figure this out for a long time, if anyone can point me in the right direction I'd appreciate it.

Below is some code that illustrates a problem I've been having for several
months now.  I've got a widget based on the QWebView that needs to be able
to open pop-up windows (e.g., links with target="_blank" or javascript
window.open() calls) in a password-protected context.

I can get the windows created just fine by overriding createWindow, but
the security credentials are not transferred over.  In "real" web browsers
(firefox/chrome/opera/rekonq/etc), once authenticated any subsequent
windows in the security context work fine.  How do I recreate this behavior
in a QWebView?

See example code:

class mybrowser(QWebView):

     def __init__(self, parent=None):
         super(mybrowser, self).__init__(parent)
         url = QUrl ("http://www.alandmoore.com/wwwtest";)
         url.setUserName("test")
         url.setPassword("test123")
         self.load(url)

     def createWindow(self, type):
         self.w = mybrowser()
         self.w.show()
         return self.w

if __name__ == '__main__':
     app = QApplication(sys.argv)
     w = mybrowser()
     w.show()
     app.exec_()
