How do I remove path inforation from a url?
For example in this url, http://stackoverflow.com/questions/ask, I want the user to only see http://stackoverflow.com. Is this possible to do?
I do a redirect in PHP from my root directory to path Foo. I don’t want Foo to display in the URL.I also do a page reload of sorts using window.location.href = domain_name/foo. Similarly I don’t want foo to display in the URL.
Is this possible to implment in Javascript or PHP or do I have to configure Apache to do this?
You cannot manipulate URLs in the browser’s address bar using PHP or JavaScript. But you have guessed correctly, this is something that can be configured in Apache. For a primer on URL rewriting, take a look at this article.
