How to kill basic authentication request from browser

Question

User open the index page presented with basic browser authentication, but he doesn't respond and provides username/password.
In this scenario, I want to kill that http request, is there any way of doing it. I remember we can set a timeout cookie but not sure.

Answer 1

Would window.stop(); work? There's a way to cancel an ajax request using <object>.abort(); but I don't think that will help you in your situation.
