No, it's not a web form.  I'm trying to include an IP addressed video camera
into my webpage.  The problem is that the video camera is password protected
using htaccess.  I don't have the option to remove the password.

I tried looking through the PEAR auth libraries but I didn't find anything
that *passed* authentication info, but only prompted for it, etc.

I thought there would be a class that would allow me to send the username
and password to a website and then include it, something like the following
pseudo-code:

<?php

$crap = new get_website();
$crap->website_address("http://127.0.0.1";);
$crap->website_username("joe");
$crap->website_password("shmoe");
$crap->retune_website();


?>

The camera used to be accessible with:

http://joe:[EMAIL PROTECTED]

But it is no longer available via Internet Explorer since the new MS
security updates on most windows boxes.

Thanks again.
