Basic Authentication in WebService

Question

Hi,
   I am trying to authenticate in web service with basic authentication but I can not.
   The code:
   var w:WebService = new WebService();
   var encoder:Base64Encoder = new Base64Encoder();
   encoder.insertNewLines = false;
   encoder.encode("teste:teste");
   w.httpHeaders = {Authorization:"Basic " + encoder.toString()};
   w.loadWSDL("http://192.168.0.205:8080/jasperserver-pro/services/repository?wsdl");
   When I run the browser always asks for username and password and in a sniffer, for example firebug, I do not see the authentication header in HTTP package.
   Can anyone help me?
Thank you.

var enc:Base64Encoder = new  Base64Encoder();
                enc.encode("test:supp0rt");
                web_Service_id.httpHeaders= {Authorization:"Basic " + enc.toString()};
