hello all ,

I'm able to get successfully http authenticated from my php scripts

Ex :
    $header = "POST /myscript.php HTTP/1.0\r\nAuthorization: Basic ";
    $header .= base64_encode("$username:$password")."\r\n";
    $header .= "Content-type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded\r\n";
    ........
    $fp = fsockopen($IP, $PORT, $errno, $errstr);
    if ($fp) {  fputs($fp, $header . $request); while (!feof($fp)) {
$response .= fgets($fp, 128); } }


But the above is not working when the $username contains a trailing semicolon or when the $password is starting with a semicolon, Ex: what if the $username ="chandu:"

Is there any solution for this ?

You need to encode user names properly. You may want to take a look at this class to see how it is done:
