Keeping url the same

    I have mysite1.com/index.htm where someone clicks a link and they are taken to mysite2.com/form.htm where they enter information into a form. After clicking Submit, they are taken to mysite1.com/thanks.htm.

    Is it possible to disguise the url so the visitor doesn't think they are going to another site temporarily?

    Thanks,

    Jon

    One simple but somewhat sketchy way to do it would be to use frames.

    Another way, which may or may not be entirely possible (I'm not sure), is to somehow create and use a subdomain of mysite1.com (example.mysite1.com) and have that forward to mysite2.com:
    Visitor sees: http://example.mysite1.com/blah.html
    Actual location: http://www.mysite2.com/blah.html
    I'm not positive that this is possible, but I think it is. It depends somewhat on what kind of hosting you have.
