[Radiant] .htaccess for pages?

[Michael Jones]

Thanks for the reply Jacob, this did work however when it authorizes 
you it just renders a blank page and does not hand off control to 
Radiant.

Since I was in a pinch I did some hacking and got it to work, but if 
anyone finds a clean way to require authorization for a collection of 
pages and still use Radiant please post it to the list, I think that 
would be helpful.

Thanks-
MJ
