.htaccess

[Anon]

I want to have an html form with two input boxes: username and passwd. I then want to submit and call a script that verifies the user and pass are in the .htaccess and .htpasswd file, and gives them access to the webpage. I am not sure how to do this. I have look at _AUTH_USER and subjects like that, but they do not look very relevant. If you have a suggestion, please help.

I think the issue you will have is that the .htpasswd file should be located in a place below document root. If your script has permissions to access this file, you are not secure at all.

I am not sure what you are saying. To sum it up, I want a script that will do the http://username:[e-mail]/account#/ that you can place in regular html. The account # part is a third input box, but I have got a current script that a user types in an account number and it prompts them for their username and pass. I would like a form with two input boxes plus the account number box that will fill in the username and pass from the .htaccess and .htpasswd. Its already secure, I would just like to eliminate a second pop-up window for verification.
