file permissions

Post by dsdsdsdsd »

hello;

on my server I have dummy.csv and delete_dummy.php;

obviousely anyone could run delete_dummy.php => http://www.mydomain.com/delete_dummy.php;

and thankfully when i run the script I am getting a permission denied error;

however I need to run the script;

is there a way to send to my server my username and password from within delete_dummy.php? (by the way I do actually have a user/password input <form> in front of delete_dummy.php; however that username/password is not the same as my server-access username/password )

any thoughts?
thanks
