hi using lwp i'm trying to validate some pages on a remote server with the w3c vaidation service, bascially just scanning for the "No errors" string.
this is not a problem in itself - at least it seem to work correctly. but now i want to validate some pages that reside in dirs that are proteced (basic authentication). can this be done ? i know for a fact that i can request those proteced pages directly (i.e. not thru w3c) so i know that the credentials are correct. $browser->credentials( 'rotected.site:80', 'megaprotected', 'me' => 'pw', ); i guess the problem is that when i request the pages via w3c which then request the proteced page, the credentials get lost somewhere, so my question is if i can give the credentials to the w3c request ? so a) can it be done? b) is it securitywise? thanks ../allan
