I don't think that .htaccess uses SSL by default. So no the password is not encrypted.<br><br>That said, there is a way to do this by redirecting the user to an SSL page for the htaccess login:<br><br><a href="http://www.htaccesselite.com/htaccess/require-ssl-before-asking-for-htaccess-password-vt12.html">http://www.htaccesselite.com/htaccess/require-ssl-before-asking-for-htaccess-password-vt12.html</a><br>

Hi,<br>
<br>
I have a web page that uses .htaccess. When I access this page using<br>
SSL, the popup for the username/password appears, but the yellow<br>
background does not appear in Foxfire until after I enter my<br>
username/password and click OK. Is it the case that my username and<br>
password is still encrypted?<br>
<br>
Thanks,<br>
<br>
Terry Bailey<br>
