hi, i was unable to find any apropriate subforum for this post anyway my Question is that i want to fix my url in adress bar of visitor's browser. for example when a visitor comes to www.thedesktopfun.com and then moves on to some internal page like www.thedesktopfun.com/cricket/ , he reaches to the next page but url diplayed is not changed in his adress bar. i have seen this with pakranks.com, how can i do it?
its an option in the control panel of your host if you are using the domain forwarding feature. I think its called "Masking" example: i have a domain: pittsburghsource.net when i goto that page, i end up seeing the URL: pghsource.cagintranet.com --- because i have "Masking" turned OFF
I'm not sure why you would want this to happen, but it is accomplished by using frames. If you view the source of the site you mentioned you will see how the frameset is setup.
Oh, yeah - that'll do it too. But i agree - there really is no good reason to do it. I always felt that it would confuse the end user.
Your right. I used Yahoo! Domain Registration and it had a masking option. I also know that cPanel allows you to redirect pages in your site to other pages easily.
