Greetings list!

Is it possible (and if so, how) to send username and password
information to a website with PHP?

I would like to submit some information to some network devices we have,
but they require login credentials to proceed.  I would like to bypass
the traditional username/password prompt so I can automate the procedure.

I hope this makes sense.

If you mean http auth style login information then you do the following:

   http://www.somedomain.com:user@password/the/path/to/resource.html

I think he meant http://user:password@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/the/path/to/resource.html.

Jay: How does the device ask for the username and password? Is it a form on the web page, a window from the browser, or what?

Standard browser prompt. I'm usually pretty good with PHP stuff and I've bypassed normal forms many times before, but I've never tried to bypass the browser popup (.htaccess or similar, I presume?).
