Hiding/Masking URL

[alex_read]

Can anyone tell me how to mask a URL so it only shows the domain name please?

i.e. Normally, if you goto webpage1, the browser address bar shows http://location/page1name.htm, if you click onto a link, the address bar would read http://location/page2name.htm etc., but I've seen a couple of sites in the past which only show http://location in the address bar when you navigate anywhere throughout the site.

Is this an IIS or HTML code trick I can use on my site?
Thanks

the way i know of is to use framed pages, and then no matter what page the user sees there browser will always show the url for the frameset. if this is called index.htm then it will be the default and so typing in www.homepage.com will show this.

Which is bad because the user can't bookmark any inside pages of your site.

Bingo!

Yup, that's what I'm looking for, I'm just doing an asp.net app using sessions (so the user's logon's evaluated on every page - there's no use/need for the user to bookmark a page as they'll just be redirected to the logon page if they do try & access it).

Thanks for the replies, I found the frame tip on google but I'd be interested to know if there was a way without using frames too.

Thanks all!
