Have you tried to just put the username and password in the URL? I'm
not sure if this works, its so simple its worth a try. Instead of using
(whatever function you use) like the first example try changing it like
the second:
x('http://example.com/protected/page.php');
x('http://username:password@xxxxxxxxxxx/protected/page.php');
Of course it depends on the 'x' you are using... I'm really not sure if
PHP's functions will take care of moving that username/password
information into the header of the HTTP request or just leave it there.
