Basic Authentication question.

[Nuno Paquete]

Hi group.
I've got Basic Authentication working almost fine, so I need to resolve a
little problem.
I've got this code in my php scrip:

<?php
$fp = fsockopen("www. mydomain.com",8 0);
fputs($fp,"GET /downloads HTTP/1.0\r\n");
fputs($fp,"Host : www.mydomain.co m\r\n");
fputs($fp,"Auth orization: Basic " . base64_encode(" user:pass") . "\r\n\
\n");
fpassthru($fp);
?>

This works almost fine.
I say almost because I can't stop showing the server response string from my
page:
"HTTP/1.1 200 OK Date: Fri, 23 Jul 2004 17:37:40 GMT Server: Apache/1.3.31
(Unix) PHP/4.3.6 Connection: close Content-Type: text/html"

How can I stop showing this text from in my page?

Best regards,

Nuno Paquete.

Don't use fpassthru... use fgets. Headers are the lines till the first
"empty" line, munch them and output the rest.

while(!feof($fp ) && strlen(rtrim(fg ets($fp)))!==0) ;

while(!feof($fp ))
{
echo fgets($fp);
}

(untested)

Thanks. That's it.
