Implementing HTTP authentication for CSP applications
1. Set the %response.UseASPredirect property to true in the OnPreHTTP method of the page.
Set %response.UseASPredirect=1 Quit 1
2. Declare VBScript in the CSP page:
Then, you can add both in-line VBScript and complete scripted sections to the page.
Examples:
Response.Write("Message from ASP script")
Dim n
For n = 1 To 10 Step 1
Response.write("These lines were generated by \
a 'for' loop in VBSCRIPT: Line # " & n & "")
Next
Complete example:
Set %response.UseASPredirect=1 Quit 1

2.9 Implementing HTTP authentication for CSP
applications
This enhancement extends the Apache modules (mod_csp*.so/dll and CSPa*[Sys].so/dll) to allow HTTP authentication to
be controlled by Caché/CSP.
HTTP authentication of web requests is normally carried out between the web server and client (browser). Because of this
it is not usually possible to implement HTTP authentication in custom request handlers hosted by the web server – such as
CGI programs and web server API-based request handlers. Of course, such extensions can issue a 401 Authorization
Required response header and, in response to this, the browser displays the HTTP login dialogue. However, in the subsequent
request, the web server intercepts the user's login details and attempts to authenticate the user using its own built-in
