Form HTTP post to password protected directory

| The action URL to my form is a page that is password protected
(standard password protected directory).
What would I need to do to authenticate? I've tried
action='http://username:password@url.com/passworddirectory/'
but that doesn't work.
Thanks,
Max.

What OS are you using?
AFAIK, WinXP SP2 prevents "username:password@" usage.

| The web server doing the post is win 2000, and there is also a win 2003
server available.
That method wouldnt work for me anyway because the username has @
character in it.
Is there some way to do this with ASP or ASP.net by posting http
variables? maybe through input type hidden or something else?
Thanks,
Max.
