Thanks for your quick response.

The PHP script sends a AuthnRequest to the IDP and after authentication, the IDP sends a response to the ACS and redirects to the profile page of the user. There is no .htaccess explicitly requiring shib authentication because our app requires different login methods since not all of the institutions using our app has shib or similar authentication service. After I do this authentication, I can run a CGI script to confirm REMOTE_USER and similar variables, and also I can confirm that a session has been made through Shibboleth.sso/Session. I need a way for the PHP script to know that the user has authenticated successfully because I will be doing session management with PHP.
Thanks
Ken
