RE: [PHP] Re: Need help with HTTP-Authentication

Hi David,.

 Http authentication is probly  not what you would want to 
 use.  Especially if you want to program in timeouts, you 
 would be better off using session based login variables.  
 Cookies are even better with an encrypted pasword that has a 
 windows of time that you have to goto other pages to renew.
 
 Why HTTP auth?
 
 Is it mandatory?

Well its not mandatory i gues. I just thought that using
HTTP-Authentication was one of the more secure ways of a login system?
But i have heared not thats not the case, so i might go for a login
system with sessions instead, or cookies. What would u use and why? What
excactly do u mean with timeouts?
 
 I know this hasnt been any help, sorry!

Thats okay;-) Keeps the discusion alive;-)

Hi,

a simple question.. :)

You can use 2 methods :
with a .htaccess file on your webserver, updated with your table fields
or a direct authentification with http headers and a little bit of php...
Tell me more? may be I could help you.
