Hi folks

How do you redirect visitors to a webpage or directory of choice while hiding the url in the browser?

Someone mentioned includes or iframes. I've messed around a bit with both but am no master.

Any tutes will be great!

Thanks
Dave

A frameset will always show the url of the frameset document, even though a different domain is loaded into one of the frames. So you can create a frameset page with 2 frames, where one of the frames is actually "0" in height so it doesn't really exist. Note that I'm talking about a regular frameset here, not an iframe. The url in the location bar will always the location of your frameset page, even when someone uses the navigation on the framed page to travel around the other website.

<html>
<head>
</head>
<frameset rows="100%,*">
<frame name="other_domain" src="http://www.example.com/">
</frameset>
</html>

Learn all about frames at the W3Schools:

Make sure you checked ToS on website or directory of your choice as normally framing someone else with only YOUR url being visible is not welcome...
