Pages with basic auth ask for password when taborama is invoked about conex

[jonathanKingston]

Probably is due to the favicon right? You likely could load them off page to ensure they load without error.

yeah ... that's my guess as well -- thanks a lot for the hint though!

mmm ... thought that would be simple, but I am kind of stuck on how to do this -- @jonathanKingston do you have a pointer for me on how to do that?
Cheers

@kesselborn - Taking some cues from this answer on Stack Overflow, https://stackoverflow.com/a/5119097 (just as an illustration on "order of operations"):

1. Check to see if requested page has Basic Auth (HTTP 401)
2. If Basic Auth, check top level domain index page, get favicons in order of link above.
3. If no favicons available, default to some sort of lock favicon

Alternately, you could just display the lock favicon if you get a HTTP 401 from a page.

I'd be happy to help implement this (and/or any other features) if you're interested.

@kaysersoze the problem is, that I don't even fetch it via ajax at the moment but just insert it as a img src or css background image ... seems as if I need to change that :/
Thanks for the pointer
