Re: Automatically send auth info

Hi all, Some of my webpages are no longer working with the IE browser after MS implemented some security patches which disable sending authentication info through the URL: http://user:pass@www.mysite.com This no longer works with IE, but is fine with most other browsers. Does anybody know of a workaround using PHP to send the user & pass "in the background", i.e. without user interaction? Thanks for your help! -m

Are you using a web form? You can just grab the values from the form if that's the case. But I suppose that you are not doing that, so you could just add some variables for username / password as part of the query string. Just realize, you're now sending login info in plain text!
