(uses an URL like above). In the latter case it still holds true that the values must get thru an [authenticate] that shows only when username / password values are not valid. If there is no [authenticate] present then the username / password values will not get overwritten. Also note that w/ wc4 , you have to name your form inputs something other than username & password since [username] & [password] can no longer pick up values from formvars in wc4. Also note that IE5/Mac always works w/Brice's trick. NN 4.7/Mac works the first time you set username / password, but after that I was not sure the username / password values could be overwritten.. I didn't test enough to say for sure now.HTH-JohnVincent Medina wrote:> Is there a way for me to reset the realm username and password on the > browser, as if there was never one entered.
