[Auth] checks the current authentication values which were sent with the HTTP header. If they correspond to a valid username and password in Lasso Administration then no action is performed. The page is processed normally with the permissions of the user.
Otherwise, the visitor is prompted with an authentication dialog. They will not be able to see the format file which contains this tag unless they specific a valid username and password from Lasso Administration.
This tag works similarly to the [Auth_Admin] tag.
