Hi all, is it possible to do a HTTP Authentication with my own loginform instead of using the ugly pop up window? regards, Wilbert
With a lot of thought, yes. You need to consider a few factors before you start. Security: Checking the IP address of the user. Performance: to DB or not to DB, that is the question! Security again: what kind of password algoritm are you going to use. And so on and so forth. I wish you the best of luck.
