forwarding from domain names whithout using frames.

Question

Hi,

I own a Domain name e.g. www.mydomain.com

I also own a webserver e.g. www.myserver.com

After navigating to my webserver via www.myserver.com clicking on links to different pages within my servers file structure will result in a change in URL...

For example

Clicking on a link to main.html will result in www.myserver.com/main.html

However if I use framed forwarding from my domain name www.mydomain.com

and perform the same action the url will not change since only the internal frame containing myserver's content will be changed... this I know is a fundemental problem with using frames, however there must be some way of maintianing a full url with the domain name i.e.

www.mydomain.com/main.html

I have mananged to achive this with frames by making the links use

href="www.mydomain.com/main.html"

instead of

href="main.html"

but this seems to be abit of a dirty method in my oppinion.

any ideas?

this is prolly a very stupid question.

cheers

Answer 1

Why use "framed forwarding" It would seem what you are really wanting is the content / data from www.mywebserver.com to show up under www.mydomainname.com .

Simply add the domain to your webserver's configuration and let it serve the content. No frames necessary.
