I know one can easily create a "Remember me" option for cookie based authentication login systems. Is such a thing also possible for basic access HTTP authentication?

Usually, the credentials the browser caches are flushed once the browser is closed. Can they be preserved somehow?

  • HTTP authentication or normal authentication, doesn't matter, if cookie already there then bypass authentication –  Jul 28 '13 at 23:09
  • Let's say we are in a situation that disallows the usage of cookies. – user2180613 Jul 28 '13 at 23:30
  • That's the browser business to manage when it should send and store credentials. There is no way to change this behavior. – Sanya_Zol Jul 28 '13 at 23:49

No, the only way is to let the user use the automatic remembering of credentials provided by the browser.
