Hi someone on list gives this advice <pre> ////////////////////////// USED FOR AUTHENTICATION //////////////////////// function authenticate_user(){ Header("WWW-Authenticate: Basic realm=\"Restricted Admin Area\""); Header("HTTP/1.0 401 Unauthorized"); echo "You are not authorized to enter this section of the site!\n"; exit; } if(!isset($PHP_AUTH_USER)) { authenticate_user(); } else { $sql = "SELECT * FROM admins WHERE adminUsername='$PHP_AUTH_USER' && adminPassword='$PHP_AUTH_PW'"; $r = mysql_query($sql); if(@mysql_num_rows($r) < 1){ authenticate_user(); } } ////////////////////////// USED FOR AUTHENTICATION //////////////////////// </pre> unfortunately the sql-statement does not work because the password is encrypted in MySQL. So it should be $sql = "SELECT * FROM admins WHERE adminUsername='$PHP_AUTH_USER' && adminPassword='PASSWORD($PHP_AUTH_PW)'"; Tom
