Assuming you are retrieving this file via http/https then it's really the remote server that will enforce the access control in whatever manner is uses. I.e., if your script tries to open a file whose access is controlled by a .htaccess file (and http-basic authentication) the user will simply get the authentication prompt when they access your page/php script.

I have a script that needs to open a remote file on another Web server, which may or may not be protected (for example, by an htaccess file). What would be the best way to check if it's protected, and if so, prompt the user for username and password to open it?
Thanks.
