Direct access to database through URL

Hi All, I need to enter a URL for a single database and it open direct in the web browser. I want it to login as guest account without having to enter any passwords so people are straight in.

IWP is linked internally as

http://192.168.0.242/fmi/iwp/res/iwp_home.html which brings up all 15 databases hosted and if I click on one of them the url changes to:

http://192.168.0.242/fmi/iwp/res/iwp_auth.html?sid=02DA8E8FAEAC1F2D12F9D213

I can enter that url which bypasses the welcome page but it still asks for a password (the file is set to open using guest which it does automatically with Filemaker but not on the web.

(I also have a feeling the link above will change every time I open filemaker)

There must be an easy way to do this

Please help

Thanks

Peter
