Load ajax data from password protected folder

EBS

Hello,

I have a 'child row' table following the example which is working fine loading data from an ajax helper file. However I want to put the helper file in a password protected folder. Does anyone know how to do this please. I have setup a user and password for the folder and modified by script as below but I don't really know what I'm doing, so any advice would be welcome please.

Many thanks

var table = $('#mytable').DataTable( {
   ajax": "/protected_folder/ajax_data.php",
   "columns": [
   {
      "user": "XXXXXXXX",
      "password": "XXXXXXX",
      "className":      'details-control',
      "orderable":      false,
      "data":           null,
       "defaultContent": ''
      },
      { "data": "firstname" },
      { "data": "surname" },
      { "data": "region" },
      { "data": "membersince" }
   ],
   "order": [[2, 'asc']],
   stateSave: true,
   "pagingType": "full_numbers"
} );

    "password": "XXXXXXXX"
},
