That is one way to try it but I haven't been able to get it to work. Questions about PHP variable authentication through .htaccess protected directories has been brought up many times since I've been on this list but has never been completly answered. Apparently it cannot be done. The closest thing you can do is create a .htaccess type pop up with PHP but the username and password still have to be entered via the user which is what I take to be what you are trying to avoid.
