The code is written for a setting of "Off" by default and therefore should work either way. The strange thing is that it works on my other websites that have the same file and filesystem structure and are uploaded on the same ISP, so the PHP settings are identical. Now, after having exhausted pretty much all sane alternatives (and some quite insane ones), I have a very irritating feeling that this problem might be connected to the fact that the problematic website is a .gr, while the others have always been .com's, .net's etc. Any experience with such problems? It it turns out to be that, I'll let everybody know. > -----Original Message----- > > I've always utilized basic user authentication by including the > following code in my protected files: > if ($_SERVER['PHP_AUTH_USER']!='name' || $_SERVER['PHP_AUTH_PW']!='password') { header("WWW-Authenticate: Basic realm=\"Website administration\""); header("HTTP/1.0 401 Unauthorised"); exit; } > > Now, suddenly this code won't work on WinXP on any browser, under Apache > 1.3 with PHP 4.3.3 running as a module.
