Hi
I am currently using php to take a username and password from a from to redirect and log the user into a secure area of the site using the format http://username@password@mysite.com.
This technique doesn't work in IE6 since a security update, can someone advise me of a better way to use PHP to redirect to a htaccess protected folder and use the username and password from the html form to log the user in?
I am currently advising users to install the patch that reverts IE6 to accepting logins from http, but this is unsatisfactory and I really need a new way of forwarding the info.
Can anyone tell me how, bearing in mind I am not very experienced with php?
Many thanks for any tips!
