Hmm... I don't think it will work... what I was trying to say was that I tried this and the information *isn't* there unless the browser is responding to a 401 auth required header in which case it is... Does that make sense? My understanding was that he wanted to use the http://user@pass:site.com/ method *without* using a 401 auth required header.... which I think is impossible... if I'm wrong someone please tell me because I'd like to do it :) -philip
