hiding URL

[SKTodd]

I am building an application that opens a pop-up window to display a feed from a camera. The users do not want the 10.xx.xx.xxx URL address of the camera to appear in the address bar. I did some research and determined that via DNS I can have the address appear in an alphabetic

http://www format.

I can't get it to work. Can someone give me an example of exactly how this is done? Here is the code I am using--
if (whichCamera == 'ARC') {
cameraWindow = window.open('

http://10.xx.xx.xxx','cameraWindow'...bars=yes,status=no,location=no,titlebar=no');

}

Is the camera IP a public range or a privatte range?

It is a private range.

Add a DNS name to the hosts file on the machine that is hosting the page/site


ie:

http://www.camera.lcl

nn.nn.nn.nnn


then use that in the script.
