Hi, I decided to change a page or two of mine to accept the username & password with the pop up box .. Header("WWW-Authenticate: Basic realm=\"Admin Login\""); Header("HTTP/1.0 401 Unauthorized"); Before I was just using a form .. Anyway, now I can not get the entered password to match what's in the database .. The password is encrypted with md5() Yet when I encrypt $HTTP_AUTH_PW and compare the two .. they are nothing alike :-| I'm using the same functions to do all this .. as when I was using the form entry .. All I'm doing is changing where the username and password come from .. So does anyone have any idea what's going on ? Thanks,
