I've tried both methods without success. header("Location: http://(user):(pass)@www.mysite.com"); does the transfer but I still get prompted for a username and password by Apache
readfile("http://(user):(pass)@www.mysite.com"); brings a warning message. Warning: readfile("http://...@;www.mysite.com/") - Success in redirect.php on line 2 It's a warning but says Success?
