This is impossible with only PHP. You might need a combination of PHP
and AJAX [Javascript].

Hello,
I'm using php and apache2 on a freebsd box. I know about .htaccess that
the web server can provide, but i'm looking for something php can do, i want
it to pop up a page when a user requests certain files, asking for a
username and password. If those are valid the user is taken to a page where
the files requested can be downloaded. I'd rather not use a mysql database
and keep this user information in a flat file, as what i am trying to do is
on a small scale. I am also interested in blocking direct access to the
files, for instance if someone puts in their direct url they should not be
retrievable, but instead php should give an error msg. Any help appreciated.
Thanks.
Dave.
