I could be wrong, but I think this would be rather client-dependent. I don't 
think HTTP remembers who you throughout a session- i think the headers get 
sent every time. My only idea from PHP would be to set the 
$_SERVER['PHP_AUTH_*'] stuff, but i sincerely doubt that would do anything. I 
just don't think there's a way  to ask the browser to set that info through 
http. Maybe ask @ javascript forum?

If you find a solution, I'd love to hear it...
