This basicAuthString() tip definitely goes in my OnRev-CGI Info folder

Of course everyone around the globe now knows my super-secret password to the American baseball statistics site for fantasy play.
Now that it is the baseball off-season, who cares.
And by Springtime when the season starts, it will automatically change anyway.
I'll be notified by email.

Good stuff.

This worked for my case

 get "http://loginn:[email protected]/";

 get it & "projections/proj.php"
 put url it into allPitchersBlock

 put libURLLastHTTPHeaders() into headersToAnalyze
--one of the headers is Authorization: Basic cm90b3Bhc3MyOjUzcHJpbmNlNDY=

 filter headersToAnalyze with "*Author*"
 put headersToAnalyze into msg

You can create the authorization string yourself assuming you know the name and password . The following should do it:

set the httpHeaders to "Authorization: Basic " & basicAuthString("myName","myPassword")

function basicAuthString pName, pPass
  return  base64Encode(pName & ":" & pPass)
end basicAuthString

This is for the Basic authentication scheme only.
