最近研究了jsp中作http认证的问题，它的工作方式如下：
1、server发送一个要求认证代码401和一个头信息www-authenticate，激发browser弹出一个认证窗口
2、server取得browser送来的认证头"authorization",它是加密的了，要用base64方法解密，取得明文的用户名和密码
3、检查用户名和密码，根据结果传送不同的页面
以下是jsp的片断，你也可以把它做成include文件。和base64的加解密的class源码。
如有兴趣可与我联系：unixboy@yeah.net
<jsp:usebean id="base64"scope="page"class="base64"/>
