.htaccess will not validate user

Set up .htaccess to password protect a single directory but it will not except the login. I keep getting the login screen to enter the user and password. I have a request in to my ISP but thought this may be faster.

Thanks

The .htaccess file should refer to a .htpasswd file to see who's authorised. If the path to that file is wrong - or the file is missing - then you will get the behaviour you describe.
