Anyone able to explain to me or know how I can get a htaccess login system to work with a mysql dbase.

What I want is a htaccess/htpassword login system that would also be able to pull a users info out of their table in my mysql dbase and display it after they login.
Anyonw know if this is possible and is nice enought to explain how I can get this to work. I know I could just do a php/msql login system with sessions but thats not want I want.

thanks

Hello,

My email is Jreis@sessionmedia.com

I would appricate it if you can share what you have with me. I wound up just using a php/mysql login system cause I could not find any info about how to change a password or write a password to .htpassword and mysql at the same time

so any help would still be appricated

thanks

Personally i would use MySQL + PHP for the ease of use this provides you.
