Hey I know this is my first post but I'm not going to just ask what I need and after I get the answer I'l leave this forum .

I have the following situation. I want to know how I can make a web-page, where it's adress is masked. I practically want to mask a chatroom into a website, make it accessible just by whom I want it, and make it impossible for people to be tracked that they have been there. Meaning if you would be scanning someone's history, or something similar (i know history can be deleted but that is besides the point ), i want it to be impossible to tell that they had been at a chatroom but actually at another page.

Practically i want to make a webpage with a masked link. Only people who know where the link is would be able to use it. You wouldn't be able to access the web page any other way different from the link.

The obvious first question has to be WHY do you want to do this? Quiet frankly, it sounds like you're asking for help on setting up something allowing people to engage in illicit activity undetected...And that's not okay. I can think of several illegal activities that would benefit from something like this, and no legitimate ones...So--viable explanation?

Explain why you would think this is such a good thing for any legal activity.

This is not a hacker or warz site, and no one will aid you in ANY WAY to do something illegal and/or stupid.

The ball is in your court. Explain your need, and we will see what we can do for you.

And no, I can not think of any reason you would need to go to such lenghts for anything legal.

Glad you chimed in...I was wondering if I was just suffering from a lack of creativity this morning! :)

by maevinn

But since this person (despite claiming they weren't going to post and run) hasn't come back with any explanation. That casts mighty big shadows of doubt in my mind.

But--I agree--those would be legitimate options. I suspect that there are far more illegal activities that would benefit, though.

It is not possible. Unless of course you own every piece of equipment between the user and your server.

But that's just me. I can think of at least a couple of ways, but until I am reasonably sure of the poster's intentions, I will refrain from posting them.

...I hope the original poster comes and gives a good explanation and reason for the requirement :-)

Masking and hiding is all 'relative', right? Because won't the surfing be somehow captured at the ISP level?

I have no idea what you're trying to do because you keep saying different things in every different paragraph.

by why me worry?

service in hopes he would gain interest in people here. He was quickly chewed out and sent on his merry way, as well as being reported the proper authorities for shooting his mouth off about his purported illegal activities.

Which means a login script or page. Otherwise, anybody with even minimal knowledge of HTML can simply view the HTML source of your page and find the URL. Even in a Flash page, there will be inadvertant rollovers unless you make the link so small that even those you want to find it can't.

Edit to add:

Access control means cookies if you don't want your users signing on each time they access the page during a session. You can set the cookies to expire at the end of the session. Spoofing the URL in the history files is beyond me, and I do believe it's also illegal.

I hate to say it, Bud, but unless I am sorely mistaken, you are not going to be able to do it for whatever purpose you have in mind.
