$PHP_AUTH_USER doesn't work

[Guest_imported]

This is my code:

if(!isset($PHP_AUTH_USER)) {
Header("

http://WWW-Authenticate:

Basic realm=\"foro\""
Header("http/1.0 401 Unauthorized"
echo "User hits CANCEL";
exit;
}
else{
echo &quot;<P>&quot;;
echo $PHP_AUTH_USER;
echo &quot;</P><P>&quot;;
echo $PHP_AUTH_PW;
echo &quot;<P>&quot;;
}

When the page is loaded, a login/password dialog box appear, but I type some text in both fields and it is always showed &quot;User hits CANCEL&quot;.

I don't understand the meaning of &quot;Basic realm&quot;

It may be that &quot;\foro\&quot; is a bad parameter ???

OK, Now I know what was wrong:

This was an ugly kind of Apache's Nigthmare cuz http authentication doesn't work if htacces is enabled (

I hope that my experience will be useful 4 any1.

Also, note that certain web servers don't support the $PHP_* built-in variables. For instance, IIS under NT would use $REMOTE_USER.
