As Dave asked, are you sure you need post?  That is, are you sure 
it is a web page you are seeing?  An HTTP authorization request 
will create a dialog box on your browser, but it is not a web 
page.  It will typically be a boring little dialog box with site 
and realm data displayed and with text boxes for name and password.

If it is a Basic Authorization request, see if you can build a 
header line and add it to the headers.

If it is a post, take care to get the encoding right.  You can use 
the Rev functions, but they are not complete for a post.
