Use include files to pass your authentication information.
?
include('auth.php');
?
auth.php:
?
$username=foo;
$password=bar;
?
put auth.php in your home directory with you as owner and apache group id
as group, or create a group that contains you and apache user (probably

executed by that webserver - which, to say the least, can
be a rather large security problem)
