Without looking much into the bug... Can you try this with one of the nightlies? If it works there, your bug may have already been fixed. Otherwise... Is there a way we can get a username/password to use? Even if one developer could have access, it'd help a lot.

The URL provided in this bug takes you directly to the homepage for higher education without prompting for a user name or password. Was the poster trying to post in a forum instead?
No, you need to click on a link to any of the articles on chronicle.com to get the HTTPauth dialogue (it's in the description but missing from the "steps to repro". However, we then need a valid Chronicle subscription to be able to test the bug successfully. That said, I can't imagine what Camino is doing differently than Fx; this should be being handled somewhere in the core code. Larry, are you accepting cookies? Could you also test a recent nightly build to see if the problem also exists there?
Larry, can you please update and answer my questions in comment 6; without more info, we will have to close this bug.
As the reporter has not given requested additional info in over a month, closing.
