Question

Here is my problem:

I want to hide the parameters in url, so any page only can display http://www.website.com

I added a frameset for the index.php page,

it’s perfect when user click any link in this page,

but if user open a link by right click -> open in new tab or window,

the whole URL with parameters will be shown,

any idea to prevent when user open a page in frameset by open in new tab?

Generally to accomplish this you need to set up the server to act in this way. It’s generally refered to as URI’s, or “Pretty URI’s”. This is also a key component in designing your app in RESTful senses.

If you have access to your servers configuration and are running a LAMP stack you can accomplish this with .htaccess files. But you will still need your server-side script to handle the rest of the requests.

Here’s an example .htaccess file that will remove the extension and query:

RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME}\.php -f
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ $1.php

RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} ^[A-Z]+\ /([^/]+/)*[^.#?\ ]+\.php([#?][^\ ]*)?\ HTTP/
RewriteRule ^(([^/]+/)*[^.]+)\.php /$1 [R=301,L]

But you should refer to RESTful anyways if you definatly want precise URI’s
