https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=20050

           Summary: Login credentials not saved separately for different
                    paths on a server
           Product: WebKit
           Version: 526+ (Nightly build)
          Platform: Macintosh
        OS/Version: Mac OS X 10.5
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: Major
          Priority: P2
         Component: Forms
        AssignedTo: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org
        ReportedBy: cliff at thesolutioncafe.com


If you have the following directory structure:

www.mydomain.com/forum/
www.mydomain.com/helpdesk/

You can not save separate login credentials per directory. Try to save basic
authentication login credentials for /forum/ directory and access /helpdesk/
directory with it's own basic authentication panel... you'll be presented with
the credentials from /forum/...

There may be a server side setting which influences this (realms?) however, the
behavior of WebKit/Safari in this instance is presently different from other
major browsers.
