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?
