[soulzx]

Hey whats up.. I have search my best for the answer I seek over google and many other search engines and forums.. but I don't know what it is im looking for term wise. I want to say vhost but I can not find any docs that give similar examples to what it is I am looking for.

What I have is

http://cdz.biz.tm

it points to my server fine.. and I can navigate through the sever fine as well..
But what I want to do is have it when I input

http://cdz.biz.tm/soulz

as a URL to point to htdocs/uszr/soulz rather then temp to point at htdocs/soulz

I have tryed many methods on my own just brain storming an tried to use examples that really didnt point towards what I was looking for help on, soo maybe someone here can help me or atleast point me towards a tutorial or something that can.

Thanks in advance

Thats almost what it is I am looking for..

But is it possible to have it not display the uszr in the url?

Im hosting a bunch of small sites pretty much. and I am trying to keep my root directory some what orginzed.. cause I have project sites I work in with others in one folder.. I have the sites I physically host.. then I have my personal folder that hold working back ups of my perosnal sites for me to work on as well..

But what I want to do is not the the uszr folder name show.. or have the other main folder names show. I just want the url + the user name for example of the site hosted. rather then using a redirect to make it if typed url+username point to url+working.dir+username

is that at all possible? or what am I looking at to make what it is I want possible?

soulzx,

If you want to obfuscate the path relative to the DocumentRoot, check out mod_rewrite.

Or use borderless frames.

 

[ericbrunson]

Borderless frames only obscure it if you don't view source.

 

[Serbtastic]

But they DO obscure the URL of the page in the frame!

 

[ericbrunson]

If you view the source of the page the frame specification has to have the url of the page in the framecontent tag, just view source and you see the URL you're trying to hide. The only thing is it doesn't put it up in the URL widget.

 

[Serbtastic]

And that's exactly what soulzx was looking for.
