.htaccess to check for sessions?

[LMS16]

Hi,

I have a small question...

Here's my situation:
I'm making a website & I want to ensure a customer's directory is secure so only they can view their files. Now atm Im using htaccess to sort this, but I dont want to be showing another login box after theyve already logged in.

Is there a way of getting htaccess or another method to check if they have a session set to allow access to their directory?

Thanks, Lew.

I managed to fix this.

I made PHP generate the htaccess files where needed, then in the url put http://username:[email protected]/password/protected/directory and it worked :)

Thanks, Lew.
