You can do it using frames.

hmm.. yes. using frame. Is there anything else such php it self that can make my url don't show? or some function maybe?

Why do you want to disguise your urls? In general, it's a really bad idea.

As moltar has said, you can use a 100% frame to mask your URL in the address bar, but it is a very bad idea for several reasons. You should always has a separate URL for each page so that they can be indexed by search engines and bookmarked by users.

If you don't like using dynamic URLs with parameters (as in your example), then if you are on a server running Apache with mod_rewrite, you can change your URLs to a more user-friendly format. For example:

http://www.example.com/index.php?id=myid

Can become something like:

http://www.example.com/widgets/blue-widgets.html

If you stick with dynamic URLs, it is best never to use

id=

as it could be misinterpreted as a session ID by a search engine spider, which may decline to index the page.

sorry kaled, I just want to know more about "securing web-site".LOL.
Anyway, what shuld i do to make my url more "user-friendly" with this "mod_rewrite" -- thing.
Maybe I'm too lazy ^_^ but, is there any forum that I can know about this "thing"?
This --> "id" just for sample purpose only :), But thank's anyway.
