Re: Basic Authentication

Hi, You could use fopen and read the file n then parse it to the reader. $fp = fopen ("http://username:password@www.whatever.com/folder/file.html", "r"); Have a closer look at fopen() and the "Filesystem" section in PHP manual. Just a warning: Be very, VERY careful when dealing with usernames and passwords like this. They must never get exposed in anyway. Your most dirty mind just can't imagine what people end up doing with it... /Johan Thomas Dedeyne wrote: > > Hello, > > I have a folder with some restrictions on.
