Hi List,
From a previous employment, I recall an apache module (I think)
called mod_auth_pl, or mod_auth_perl, or some such. I also remember the
website I was working on for that job having a login widget on the page
that took the place of the default browser pop-up authentication dialog,
but still managed (iirc) to interact with the apache authentication
model (i.e. I don't remember there being any fancy footwork other than
.htaccess files to control access, still used Basic auth, but used the
page's widget instead of the browser's pop-up).
I really want to do that for some web pages here. Have a default login
page, instead of having the browser pop up the auth dialog. Am I
remembering poorly, or is that easy to do? I still want my PHP scripts
to be able to use things like $_SERVER["REMOTE_USER"] and such.
Thanks for the advice, folks!
~Brian
