Hello 
 
 I want to use within a cgi the user name and password that a user
 submits when he is accessing a secured area. The area is protected
 with .htaceess file.
 My script is activated within the secured area in a subsequent 
 transaction not the first one. The environment variable REMOTE_USER 
 has  a value only when the user attempts to enter the secure area for 
 first time. during his browsing within the secured area this variable
 is empty. Any thought how my script can have the user name and
 password?
  
  Many Thanks
