Re: Using ht://dig with JSP internal pages which require user login

Basically, you need to provide a "back door" for htdig to access the 
site (since htdig is a web spider and is subjected to the exact same 
restrictions as regular users - thus, any place a user is asked for 
credentials, htdig will be asked as well).

Then, when the site is indexed, you need to run searches through jsp, 
figure out what security exists for each result and ultimately, whether 
or not to display the result.

There are a few htdig PHP classes floating around out there that you  
might want to reference while writing your jsp. Check out 
phpclasses.org
