restful_authentication - using http auth in IE

Hi,

my restful_authentication plugin is always logging in using http auth.

But only in IE. In Safari/Firefox in displays a form.

Where do I tell it to use html login form?

I didn't want http auth or cookie-based logins at all, so I modified the current_user method in lib/authenticated_system.rb like this:

    def current_user       # Original method allowed login from http authentication or cookie, but we are disabling that.       # @current_user ||= (login_from_session || login_from_basic_auth

login_from_cookie) unless @current_user == false

      @current_user ||= login_from_session unless @current_user == false     end

If you do make this change, be aware that if you install a newer version of restful_authentication your modifications will be overwritten. That wasn't an issue for me.

wierd that this happens in IE though, I had the same issue. Did you ever properly resolve it? We need http auth for API calls.
