Web Security

[TheWorm]

Hi:

I have set up Web Security for my fileMaker 4 database and now it is working with no problems. I've created an HTML hyperlink that creates for me a new record. The I've used the hyperlink so that I can display the user ID number. My question would be how can I include in my hyperlink a username and password so that a new form will be generated without the enter password box. TIA

If you include username and password in the url, you might as well not bother with security at all because people will be able to see the password easily.

There is a TIL article on the FMP web site that covers this very issue, it also warns of the security hole.
