Is there a way using a servlet/jsp to tell the browser to send the Authorization request header without sending a prior "401 Authorization required" reponse header. Well it goes like this: We have a Basic Authentication setup on some of our resources. We would like the user to bypass the authorization dialog box. The user could post the userid/pwd to a jsp/servlet which then redirects to the requested resource (protected) with the credentials. This way the user can access protected resources without encountering the authorization dialog box. But after the user had made the first request and tries to access another resource, the authorization dialog box pops up because the browser hasn't authorized. It's the jsp/servlet that has. So is there some way to tell the browser to send a Authorization header without sending a 401 reponse code back?
