Hi Rahul, Try doing a print_r($_SERVER) to see if the variables are being set. If they aren't, take a look at the phpinfo(); -> chances are your host is using a CGI binary version of PHP to use together with a security wrapper like suPHP or phpSuExec, which might throw away the variables that you require.

When I open this page on my web site, it does bring up the popup box asking for Username & Password the problem is, even if I type the correct user/pass, it won¹t accept it. It keeps asking me for user/pass again and again and finally brings up the ³Unauthorized² text on the page. Why won¹t it allow the correct user/pass to login? I don¹t understand. The only difference between the PHP on my localhost and the PHP on my webhost server is that my local machine is running PHP 5 and the webhost server is running PHP 4.4.1 -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
