How to Generate Redirect URL
Here is the formula:
[REPLACED WITH FILMS URL]/includes/modules/FM_InsecureLogin/index.php?name=[REPLACED WITH ENCODED USERNAME]&return=[REPLACED WITH ENCODED RELATIVE FILMS URL][REPLACED WITH FILMS URL] - Replace with FiLMS URL (e.g. http://telus-sfb.icomproductions.ca)
[REPLACED WITH ENCODED USERNAME] - Replace with encoded username. If the username contains either special character or whitespace, it's time to encode it (See How to Encode text).
[REPLACED WITH ENCODED RELATIVE FiLMS URL] - Replace with encoded relative URL (e.g. /about.php from http://telus-sfb.icomproductions.ca/about.php). See How to Encode text.
