htaccess question

Hi gang:

Is there a way I can use a htaccess directive to require a php script
to be "included" within each file contained within that directory?

For example, let's say I have a directory with 100 scripts in it, but
I want each script within that directory to pass through an
authorization script before executing.

The hard way is for me to go through each of the 100 scripts and add
the statement "require(auth.php)", but I don't want to do that (I'm
too lazy and beside there is too great of a chance of an error). So,
is there a way for me to circumvent this problem by using a htaccess
directive?

Now, I know that I can use htaccess to require basic authorization, like so:

AuthType Basic
AuthName "admin"
AuthUserFile /home/httpd/vhosts/mydomain.com/.htpass
require valid-user

But I don't want a file containing user ids and encrypted passwords
in the file system. Instead, I want to move the user ids and
passwords into the database and out of the file system. I can do this
with an authorization script, but I don't want to alter 100 scripts
to do it.

Opinions and suggestions welcomed.

Thanks,

tedd

I don't think it is possible to include a particular script for every
request without using include or require statements.

You can solve this problem by routing all the request to one file, say
index.php and then manipulate the flow from there.
