 I could be *WAAAAAY* wrong, but I thought nobody ever bothered with Digest
 Auth because, errrr.
 
 It's not better/safer than HTTP Auth?
 
 You might as well go with SSL if you go to that much trouble?
 
 Not enough browsers support it?
 
 Okay, so clearly I don't remember why I thought this.
 
 Google for "PHP HTTP Digest Authentication" and see what turns up...
 
 But don't be surprised if the answer is "Not supported"
