title: Using Basic Authentication with Web Browser Control for WP8
body: <p>I am trying add in support for basic auth using a WebBrowser control by doing this:</p>
  
  <pre><code>string hdr = "Authorization: Basic " + Convert.ToBase64String(Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes("{username}" + ":" + "{password}")) + System.Environment.NewLine;
  
  webBrowser.Navigate(new Uri("http://MyTestWebsite.com/"), null, hdr);
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>However, when Navigate is called, the WebBrowser will not load the page. And LoadCompleted/Navigated was never called. What could be the problem here?</p>
