My client is using the database to show off her products that she is selling. How can I give a link so that it will open automatically to the database?

She has different categories so I was going to do this"

http://www.myserver.com/...;mh=10&so=ascend

but when I enter that it goes to the log in screen. Can I bypass this screen?

In the .cfg file, set

$auth_allow_default = 1;

and

@auth_default_permissions = (1,0,0,0,0);


Then set up your link as

http://www.myserver.com/...&Category=silver

You don't have to set the "mh" or "so" because they are already set by default. I think you can get by without "db=default" too. You do have to have "view_records=1" and your search criteria.

JPDeni --

I can't get that to work. Is there something else I can do?

I have attached my .cfg file.

Okay. It's been a really long time since I've done any of this, so I forgot. Here's what you need to do.

http://www.essentialpiecejewelry.com/cgi-bin/dbman/db.cgi?db=default&uid=default&view_records=1

and then add your search term like

&Item=*

which will give you all of the items or add whatever other search term you want.

Sorry 'bout that.
