basic authentication by code -- help needed!!!



Hi,

I'm working on a content pages web site engine which deifnes 2 types
of security methods.
some of the pages don't need authentication and can be accessed by
everyone, while other pages (the same aspx page- different content)
requires to have Basic Authentication, ie. having the popup window
open at the client, authenticating him before he can view the content.
this behavior is defined by configuration of each content page which
is accessed programatically.

the question- is there a way of having the basic authentication popup
by code? i want to check the page's property, and if this is a basic
authentication page, then i want the popup appear to the user...
i searched and couldn't find anything about this anywhere, i would
really appriciate any help regardng this

Thanks in advance,
Ami.
