No. You neer get a box because that is for Apache basic auth.
If you do
if request.function == 'stream':
auth.settings.allow_basic_login = True
@auth.requires_login()
def stream():
stream = 'http://mystream...'
return dict(stream=stream)
you get the usual web2py login page. If username and password are
already in the URL (basic auth)
http://username:[email protected]:8000/..../stream
then you do not get prompted. You never get the popup. That is ugly.
