Double authentication with PHP script and htaccess.. how to unify?


Recommended Posts

I have a script that displays photos, and when it is a album I want to protect, I add login authentication to the script using PHP.  However, this does not prevent someone from manually trying to type the URL of an image file into the address bar and seeing it that way.. so I also have an htaccess file in the photo directory.  However, this solution then requires a person to login twice. 

 

Do any of you have a good solution for this problem that eliminates the double login?

 

Thank you all in advance!
