hi - I'm not quite sure if this will help you, but lets give it a try: you could use this URL syntax: http://user:password@;www.site.com to automatically log your user in to the htaccess protected area. the bad thing about it is that user / password show up in the URL, but you could hide this information with using frames... are PHP/MySQL usernames + passwords the same like in Apache/HTTP?
