By "default login page" do you mean the pop-up pawword challenge in the client browser? If so, you might be asking the same question as is discussed on this thread: http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=apache-httpd-users&m=115934803326481&w=2 . However, since you are using PHP to do session-handling, you don't need to use basic auth at all. You just make a form (ie, the login page) that returns a cookie when authenticated, then the user can only access the content when he presents the cookie. The details of the implementation are PHP-specific and have nothing to do with apache, so I would switch over to a PHP forum if you want to go that way.
