i want to hide any urls in address bar and this for security reasons. my 

asp pages passes sensitive data in form of form variables in the address 

bar.

this should be applicable for any user using the site. bascially he should 

only see www.mydomain.com and nothing else in the address irespective of 

whatever links he/she clicks on the webpage.

can i achieve this.

thanks very much

It's easier to convert them to hidden fields and submit the page to the next

one than try to "hide any urls in the address bar". How would you do that

without removing the querystring so it doesn't get to the next page? If the

user can't see it, neither can HTTP.

You can put it in a frameset and just have 1 frame, the url would 

always

stay the same in the address bar...

The url can still be inspected by looking at web page's property on IE.

It works, yes, but in any site that uses frames there is a way to load

the content of a given frame separately. For instance, here in Mozilla, I 

can right click in the frame area and select "Show Only This Frame" - 

which simply breaks the frameset, or "Open Frame In New Window" (which 

does exactly what it says on the tin). Konqueror gives me the right-click 

options to open in a new window or open with netscape - which has the 

same effect but opens with a new instance of Netscape rather than a new 

instance of Konqueror. Opera gives me "Frame -> Copy Address"... Netscape

no doubt has it's own variations, but I don't particularly feel the need

to find out what, just now :). Lookinng at a collegaue's copy of Internet

Explorer 6.0, I see that it has the option to view Properties of a

document within a frame, and one of those properties is the name of the

document, of course! In any case, the documents would be held in your

browser's cache as separate documents. If this really is for security

reasons, I think you have to start finding more secure ways of passing

the data around in the first place. Some of the suggestions you've had

already would be good starting points.

Yeah, if you don't want anyone to see the querystring you're passing 

around,

use forms instead, I just thought he wanted it to hide from the address

window...  It's just a simple solution for cosmetic appeal.  You can 

put in

javascript code so that you can detect if you're in the frameset, and 

if

not, reload the page in the frameset.  Of course, you can disable 

javascript

to get around this too, but like i said before, this method is purely

cosmetic, it is not secure at all...  guess i should've clarified that 

in my

original post...  :)
