An HTML browser will never require Basic Auth.
?? Why? I'm missing something here.....in web.xml, what do you do if I chose BASIC instead of FORM?
If your browser can accept HTML, then it can use FORM authentication.
It is documented that you must use FORM authentication in web.xml when you deploy the app.
Even if you don't, it should still work (as long as you specify the login and error page in the login-config tag) because teh authenticator Tomcat creates after reding web.xml is never called. I use web.xml just to make sure that the LoginConfig instance that gets passed to my authenticator contains the right information.
