Username and Password are domainsensitive. That's the complete domain including any variations:Secure.domain.comWww.domain.comWhocares.domain.comWill all see those as requiring different username and passwords.Since the browser will not see the domains the same, the [username] and[password] tags should come back blank, unless you have successfullyauthenticated the new domain as well.Feel free to correct me if I am wrong. I tend to be more often late at night;-)AlexAlex J McCombie New World MediaChief Information Officer Drawer 607800/724.8973 Fair Haven, NY 13064Alex@NewWorldMedia.com http://OurClients.comInterface Designer WebDNA Programmer Database Designer-------------------------------------------------------------This message is sent to you because you are subscribed to the mailing list .To unsubscribe, E-mail to: To switch to the DIGEST mode, E-mail to Web Archive of this list is at: http://webdna.smithmicro.com/
