Use the curl library to authenticate

<?php
// create a new cURL resource
$curl = curl_init();

// set URL and other appropriate options
curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_URL, "http://www.example.com/");
curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_HTTPAUTH, CURLAUTH_BASIC ) ; 
curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_USERPWD, "username:password"); 

// grab URL and pass it to the browser
curl_exec($curl);

// close cURL resource, and free up system resources
curl_close($curl);
?>
