I'm building a little application that displays a publically viewable
resume but I want to protect the add/edit/delete methods for a given
controller. It's a dead simple app for a single user and the whole Acl
bit would be serious overkill.
The Security component seemed to fit the bill so I did the following
in one of my controllers as a test:
function beforeFilter() {
$this->Security->loginOptions = array(
'type'=>'basic',
'realm'=>'Authentication Required'
);
$this->Security->loginUsers = array(
'user'=>'sekrit'
);
$this->Security->requireLogin('edit');
}
This code came directly from The Book(http://book.cakephp.org/view/
1309/Basic-HTTP-Authentication)
As expected a login box will pop up when I go to that page.
Unfortunately, when I put in the proper credentials it just pops up
the authentication dialog again. If I hit cancel, it goes to the white
page (the black hole I'm assuming).
Any ideas on why it isn't working? Is there a better way to go about
this?
Thanks!
