#20897 [NEW]: feature request

From: bj454@scn.org Operating system: redhat PHP version: 4.2.3 PHP Bug Type: Feature/Change Request Bug description: feature request I would like to be able to include remote urls protected with a .htaccess and be able to type the password with php. For example, printers where I work are controlled using built in web servers. You can use the username/password to control print jobs as well as get usage statistics. I do not want most people to be able to change the settings/ip addresses but I do want them to be able to view the print statistics, all of which are controlled with the same password. My thought was to create a php page and include the url for the statistics page and somehow send the username and password, this way I can make my customized .htaccess and allow multiple users to access statistics while still keeping administrative access away from the masses.
