O.P. Domain Cloaking
Hello.

I want to edit the .htaccess on my server, so that when opening my site, the .be domain stays the adress.

For example my website: www.asip.be
Clicking to the forum means: www.asip.be/forum
viewing a thread makes: http://www.asip.be/forum/index.php?topic=17.msg58#new

I just want there to be www.asip.be ALL the time. Domain cloaking? Sure. But what to I have to put in the .htaccess file to do it. I've searched alot on the web, and i can't find a clear answer, and it's all about forwarding...
But that is my opinion!

RE: Domain Cloaking
Hey,

Not sure if this will help you but i have a piczo website and i got anoyed putting .piczo.com all the time so i used a .TK domain. Now everytime i view my website it's always for any page (even if i go to google(( as a link from the site)) www.petertoye.tk < give it a shot and you will see what i mean. To get a tk domain go to www.dot.tk

Hope this help's

Pete

That's because they use a Frame to put the other page in. So only the page in the frame changes and the url won't change.

Sure, but it's kinda a dirty trick, using mod_rewrite with apache would be nicer.

A frame is definitely what you want, but I'd urge you to reconsider.  You are probably only doing it for cosmetic reasons, but you will be essentially breaking your site doing it, by making it difficult to bookmark anything or directly link someone else to anything.  People tend to hate that.

No it's not free :P
Those were Combell domain-forwards.
We hosted asip.be on One and payed for a hosting package, not just a forward.
Anyway my own website www.exca.be is hosted with Combell, and there you can click 'Cloaking' in the hosting configuration and the adress doesn't change anymore... but with One we have to do it in the .htaccess

No I don't want frames. I've had enough trouble with them on my own site and as there is a subdomain /forum it's not possible (as the forum is php, living on its own..
