Hi,

In my Firefox extension, i use a lot RDF templates to construct my UI 
widgets. The URL of the remote datasource is defined in the 
'datasources' attribute of my templated element.

For accessing the datasource, the server requires a basic 
authentication. Before the user gets authenticated, the server response 
has code 401 and the required headers to request an authentication.

I would expect the Firefox UI to open the authentication dialog when 
this happens. But nothing appears and the datasource simply does not load.

However, if i access 'manually' (by entering the same datasource address 
in the address bar), i get prompted for a login/password.


Is there some trick to allow the authentication dialog to be used on 
templates' remote datasources ?

Marie
