David,

many ways to do that David, one is to script the basic auth header  
yourself using the set httpheader property. it's fairly easy, just  
get your username and password and to like this:

     put the cusername of this stack & ":" & the cpassword of this  
stack into tToken
     put format("Authorization: Basic %s", base64encode(tToken)) into  
tAuthToken
     set the httpheaders to tAuthToken


then call your method.

other more professional ways, refer to libURL Real Docs at http://
