Using %username% in a hyperlink.

I wanted to create a hyperlink that users can click on to open their folder on the network via ftp.

If I type ” [url]ftp://files.server.non/user/%username%/My Documents[/url] ” into a browser, it converts it to ” [url]ftp://files.server.non/myname/My%20Documents[/url] “, prompts me for my username and password, then opens my My Document folder.

If I put the same line in a hyperlink, however, it returns ” [url]ftp://files.server.non/%25username%25/My%20Documents[/url] “, replacing the % with it’s code %25.

Is there anyway to code this to work, or another alternative I could use?

Thanks!
