Javascript Linksys router-style log pop-up

I am wondering how to do a simple Javascript log in for my web pages on my dev server. I want it to be very simple, like the ones that pop up when you go to 192.168.1.1 to adjust the settings on your Linksys router.

Any suggestions?

AFAIK most of the routers use an HTTP basic authentication that is defined in a .htaccess file. Just google for "HTTP basic authentication" to find some generators for this.

If you want to go with HTML: is there a problem with a plain form with a text input for the username and a password input for the password?

This isn't JavaScript, it's actually how browsers handle HTTP authentication.

Here's a really basic example in PHP.
