Since this is a week old I sent it offlist:

This page uses javascript. It collects the username/password and parses
it to a location string that bypasses the popup.
<HTML>
<BODY>
<form>
<input name=username value=""><br>username<p>
<input name=userpass value=""><br>password<p>
<input type=button value=Submit
onclick=location="http://"+this.form.username.value+":"+this.form.userpass.value+"@yourDomain/securedDir/targeted.html">
</form>
</BODY>
</HTML>
I don't know about php, but sending the values to the server to be
parsed as a Perl redirect will not work. With IE you still get the
pop-up, if you cancel you get the "auth failed" page with the
http://username:userpass@yourDomain/securedDir/targeted.html in the
location, hit "reload" and you're in. Weird to say the least....
