Changing url

Hi,
I have a link on index page of my site leading to mydomain.com/index2.html. I need to set it up in a manner that when some one clicks that link and goes to index2.html, the url in the browser only shows un mydomain.com
If someone can advice.

The only free client side way to do that is with frames. You can mask is nicely where the user isn't really aware of it, but otherwise you're going to have to go crazy and buy some software to do this. The meta tag method doesn't really work.

Just out of curiosity, why do you want to do that? Sometimes people try to pass unencrypted passwords that way...I wouldn't recommend that.

And on the frames side, just maximize the single frame and set all the paramaters you want...scrollbar, etc.

May be question was not correctly framed. i want to achieve something like justhost.com
On the main page in you see that when a country is changed their is a change in the images etc below. I thought its achieved using change of page wherein the url above remains same. Not sure though

Bah. A Jumpbox. Not keyboard user friendly.

Anyway, they're using PHP (a popular server-side language) to dynamically pick which page elements to show based on which country is selected.

If you gave us more details regarding your original question, perhaps we could suggest a solution.

I'm offering up two ideas:

1) Use Ajax to load the content of another document within the page.

2) Use Apache mod-rewrite to rewrite the URL.

sorry, twice posting.
please delete this post only. thanks.

I guess javascript can not do that: document.URL is readonly, and window.location.href means page redirection.

The only way to do that is thru server's scripting (e.g: PHP). Or you might want to consider dynamic content (XMLHTTPRequest: Ajax, jQuery, etc).

And what is the reason you don't want to use different urls for two different languages? There's no real benefit from what you are trying to do...
