Remote Desktop Connection Help Please!

I would like to add a remote desktop connection to my website, which works now, if I put the IP address of the server in the box. I dont want to reveal the IP address, so is it possible, that the initial value would be like "Server" and then when people push the button, it would go to the IP address I can specify? (here i put 123.123.123.123 for the ip address, which i dont want to show, but i want it to go there) Thanks!

Here is my code:
<html>
<head>
<title>Remote Desktop Web Connection</title>
<style type="text/css" media="screen">
p { color:"#000000"; font-family: "Verdana, Arial, Helvetica"; font-size:"65%"}
h1 { font-size: 100%; font-family: verdana, arial, helvetica; font-weight: bold;
          margin-top: 0em;}
p.indent { margin-left: 3em; margin-top: .5em; line-height: 1.25em; margin-bottom: .2em; margin-right: 1em;}
.button {
     FONT-FAMILY: Verdana, Helvetica, Arial, San-Serif;
     font-weight:normal;
     font-size:70%;
     color:#000000;
     background-color:#ffffff;
     border-color:#6699ff;
     margin-top:6pt;
     margin-left: .5em;

}
.topspace {margin-top: .08em; }
</style>

Ok, I did not think of that...they can look it up in the source anyway, so it does not really matter. I added a record in the DNS which works internally, but not externally, and its just too much work to ask my ISP to add the record.... :)
What about registering a domain name, and pointing it to your server's address... That would resolve to the right ip from everywhere.
