Hi, I am hosting a SVN server on my computer and to access it I have to use a SSL url with http authentification.

So when I go to my svn web browser like that : https://localhost/svn
It prompt me a User/Password authentification like that :
htpasswd_alert_identifiant.gif


Now I try on the Android browser and it tell me that the Web page not available but I can access to my simple webserve (who is without authentification)

Do Android can handle this kind of authentification ? There is other way to connect ?

Thx, and if you need more information ask.
PS : Sorry for english, trying to write well.
 
I just fix my problem but it make me ask a question.

I try to directly call my computer webserver with the ip not the name. I realise that the browser now prompt me the authentification form and then allow me to browse my test website.
My question is why my android browser do not support computer name on network (ex : https://computername). There is any other way to manager this kind of situation ?

Thx for all, and sorry for double post
