Hello sanjib,
I may be wrong, but as far as I know, all the connection aspects related to HTTP authentication are handled by the browser. In case the credentials are wrong (even if entered on your own popup), the browser will display its own popup. However, there may be workarounds (such as generate the authorization header from the javascript code, or other technics), but I'm not sure this is always successfull. One idea is to define a special resource that aims uniquely at saying if the credentials are correct. If they are, then the desired request is sent from the client page in order to set up the browser's session. Another track for you to explore is the authentication based on cookies.
