I've got a small question about .htaccess. I would like to have an actual username/password page and when the user submits it I want it to bypass the typical .htaccess pop up box. What are the values that are being passed? I used to know this and I can't seem to pry it out of my thick skull. I know if those values are passed that pop up box will not appear. I would also like to have it redirect to failure page if the user/pass combo is bad.
This is not possible. HTTP Basic/Digest auth require the popup, because this is the only way to get the browser to send the proper auth headers. If you don't want the popup, that means you probably want to use cookies. There is a module called mod_auth_cookie which lets you use cookies to replace Basic/Digest auth headers.
