Why does Browser/Server Authentication SUCK so Bad ?
Posted: Wed Sep 15, 2010 4:40 pm
Can someone please tell me why Browser / Server Authentication Sucks so Bad.
I mean I have been looking all over for a solution on how to Reset or Clear PHP_AUTH_USER and PHP_AUTH_PW
and the only solution I came up with is to resend false information to them in order to get the login box to pop
up again. Seems that once a user is logged in using that method it doesn't matter even after you destroy all
session variables and go back to login page you still won't get the login box to pop up because PHP_AUTH_USER remains
set once you login the first time until you actually close the browser app and re-open it and go back to the site.
is there no function that can just clear PHP_AUTH_USER and PHP_AUTH_PW ??
