Possible to Login via HTML link?

[macpilot]

Is it possible to create an html link on a webpage to login to http file server?  Currently I have a html link that just directs to the HTTP File Server and then the user is prompted with a window that asks for a username and password.  I am wondering if it is possible to automate this login from a html link similar to FTP?  Thanks in advance.

Hi

<a href="123/456/~login">

The path depends on your invironment - but the aktual login goes with ~login.

Yes, but will this let the user login without entering their password? I'm looking to create a static html link that will allow the user to not enter their password but have that in the link e.g. http://10.7.22.29/~login:user:password

is this possible or am i dreaming?

its possible

by memory the format was http://user:password@serveraddress

have a look in the wiki, if that doesnt work.
