httaccess - authentication

Anon

hello,

i read this message on this forum:

Hi all,

Right now on my site you have to enter the correct username and password on my web site to get access to certain directories. I'm doing this thru apache .httaccess in my httpd.conf file. It works great; the username/password login box pops up and you're on your way.

My question is this, how do I get rid of the popup box window and replace it with a form??? How do I pass the username and password variables to apache to make it like I just entered the same values in the pop-up window? I want to continue to use the placed .httaccess files in my protected directories. I just want a different interface to pass the variables to apache.

Thanks

I have the same question, does anyknow how to replace the httaccess login box?

If so, please reply.

Thanks,

ricky

I found it out allreadyk, you dont need php to do it, for those who are trying to do the same:

copy this in your head

then i got this in the body:

<body>

<form name=login>
<table width=250 border=0 cellpadding=0 cellspacing="0">
<tr>
<td colspan=2 align=center>
<h2 align="left"><b><font size="1" face="Verdana">proceed to login</font></b></h2>
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td><font size="1" face="Verdana">Username:</font></td>
<td><font size="1" face="Verdana"><input type=text name=username size=20 style="border: 1 solid #000000"></font></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td><font size="1" face="Verdana">Password:</font></td>
<td><font size="1" face="Verdana"><input type=password name=password size=20 style="border: 1 solid #000000"></font></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td colspan=2 align=center>
<p align="left"><font size="1" face="Verdana">
<input type=button value="Login!" onClick="Login(this.form)"></font></p>
</td>
</tr>
</table>
</form>

</body>
