Hiding url

We are in the process of upgrading a mod_plsql application from OAS 4.0.8 to 9.0.4.0.1. To start the application a user enters http://barra:7777/PIRS in a browser which displays an initial screen with http://barra:7777/PIRS/web_pkg.p_login as the resolved url.
I would like the url displayed to not have package names, ports, and if possible not even the server name. How can this be done? If someone could point me in the direction of a how to document or give me some clues I would be most grateful.

Hi!
To avoid the server name to be displayed you should examine the possibilities of the Webcache which is part of the 9.0.4. To hide the package name you might need to do some macig in the OHS (Apache) by using mod_rewrite but I doubt that this would work.

Hiding url in the run time

hi gurus,
i am using oracle forms 10g, i have developed a form
i am running that form it is showing in the web browser
http://192.168.0.15:8889/frm/frmservlet/?from=test.fmx and also how to hide the back side main window i mean to say the by default window/MDii window which is shown
at the run time.
can i hide the '192.168.0.15:8889/frm/frmservlet/?from=test.fmx' this from other users who is running this forms by accessing my ip address while running the form.
in fact i have already seen this hiding but i don't how to hide this
can anybody tell me how to hide this by giving alternative name from my own..........

Yes, this is possible. To hide the URL you will need to use HTML Frames and assign the Forms Servlet page to one of the frames. Then call your application using the frames html page. Here is the basic setup:
1. Create a simple index.html as follows:
<HTML>
<HEAD>
<TITLE>YOUR APP TITLE HERE</TITLE>
</HEAD>
<FRAMESET BORDER=0 rows="1, *">
<FRAME NAME="top" SRC="top.html" FRAMEBORDER="NO"
SCROLLING = "NO" NORESIZE>
<FRAME NAME="bottom"
SRC=http://HOST:PORT/forms/frmservlet?config=myAPP FRAMEBORDER="NO" SCROLLING = "AUTO">
</FRAMESET>
</HTML>Beware to change the HOST:PORT to your actual host and port information.
2. Save this file in the docroot directory for the HTTP server
3. Create a dummy empty file at the same location named top.html (To represent the upper frame)
4. Run the URL http://HOST:PORT/index.html or simply http://HOST:PORT

Hiding url in JSP

I have one little JSP application that is used to perform some test on user and based upon that test this application needs to load a different page that is on a different server and that page is just an html page. I need to hide url of the html page that jsp will load. Is it possible? Is it possible to pass a parameter on a different server?
Your help will be greatly appreciated.
Lionfoo

I take it that by "hiding the URL" you mean to do something similar to a jsp:forward except to another server... That's not really possible but you can grab the content on the other server and display it. Check out Jakarta's scrape taglib:

Hiding url Prefix using webdispatcher

Dear Friends,
Need your help in regards to webdispatcher.
Scenario:
We have created ABAP webdynpro which will be used as application for enduser for punching the data via URL from internet.
e.g. Dynpro name: http://<ECC HOST>:8000/sap/bc/webdnpro/sap/ztest
As exposing the URL on internet directly is very risky and against the security policy. We have installed the Webdispatcher, where we have configure SSL in webdispatcher, now all the user come via HTTPS from webdispatcher e.g. https://<SAP WEBDISP>/sap/bc/webdynpro/sap/ztest
Above is working perfectly fine, now we are thinking of hiding the Prefix i.e /sap/bc/webdynpro/sap/ztest
It means when from internet i call https://<SAP WEBDISP> i should get the same page but in this case complete url should not be visiable to users.
i mean https://<SAP WEBDISP> url should remain as is, but it should work like https://<SAP WEBDISP>/sap/bc/webdynpro/sap/ztest
Can anybody share there experience or idea how can we can achieve this if possible.
Waiting for your inputs.
Thanks,
Anil Bhandary

Hi,
You could create an alias in the SICF transaction for your web dynpro application. Check defining alias section in this SAP help: http://help.sap.com/saphelp_erp60_sp/helpdata/en/55/361a3c9c004866e10000000a11402f/content.htm
hope this helps,

Hiding url of the address

Hi,
I want to use welcome-file tag specifed in web.xml. My application name is xyz and my welcome file is
<welcome-file-list>
<welcome-file>abc/a.html</welcome-file>
</welcome-file-list>
When i enter URL as http://localhost:7001/xyz i want to see http://localhost:7001/xyz/abc/a.html which is getting displayed correctly but one problem which i see is that in browser URL Address bar it is still showing http://localhost:7001/xyz. Please let me know what do i need to do to see the complete URL as http://localhost:7001/xyz/abc/a.html

This is not a web dynpro restriction - but one that has been brough about by the browser designers.
Because of the number of people falling to phishing attacks the designers of browser have all decided to always show the URL of any popup HTML windows. This stops malicious pop-ups from pretending to be something they are not and stealing user's data.
If the world were a nicer place you could have your pop-up without the URL - but it isn't and it's probably better that your users have a least a little help in identifying if they are being scammed.

Hiding URL in Blog Search results

Is there a preference or workaround to remove or hide the entry URL shown after performing blog searches?
TIA

I assume there must be some an obscure editable setting in one of the css files for the blog or archives. Any ideas on which one would affect the URL?
TIA

Hiding URL in the title bar of external window

Experts -
Scenario:
On click of 'LinkToAction' element, we are opening up a pdf document (stored on portal content server)
in an external window, using:
CALL METHOD LO_WINDOW_MANAGER->CREATE_EXTERNAL_WINDOW
    EXPORTING
      URL            = LV_HOSTNAME
      TITLE          = 'My Title'                             "Does not work

      HAS_TOOLBAR    = ABAP_FALSE
      HAS_LOCATION   = ABAP_FALSE
    RECEIVING
      WINDOW         = LO_WINDOW.
We have a requirement to hide the location bar and the title of the window (in which the PDF is displayed). We are able to hide the location bar but the URL still appears in the title bar.
We have tried the following code to set the title, but it is not working.
CALL METHOD LO_WINDOW->SET_WINDOW_TITLE
EXPORTING
    TITLE = 'My Title.                    "Does not work
LO_WINDOW->OPEN( ).
Any help on how to achieve this will be appreciated.

About hiding url in webdynpro applications

hi guys,
          i have done an application in which data is tranferred from one applicaiton to the another by using a URL. (we could say this application as interapplication navigation).
        Here the datas are stored in the url..and i could succesfully move the datas from one application to another..........
        But i want to hide the URL which carries the value...
pls suggest me how to do this or send me some sample codes for solving this issue.
thanks in advance,
bye

Hi Sri,
         If you use 'getmethod' in first application to pass data to another application then the URL will always show the transfer data. If you use the 'postmethod' to transfer data then it will not show the transfer data in the URL. So use Post method to hide data.

Hiding url redirects

Hi all,
I am using UNIX(SUNOS) with iplanet 6.1 webserver with IE 6 browser on user end. The NSAPI application i am developing recieves a request with a certain string https://MYWEBSERVER/mystring and in the nametrans stage i replace this url with https://OTHERWEBSERVER/newstring?whatever and i redirect the request from MYWEBSERVER to a different webserver OTHERWEBSERVER that is i am doing an url redirect to another server. But the problem is that the url shows up on the address bar. Is there any elegant way to not let it show up on the address bar. By elegant i mean that it should not show up whatever i do to the browser(like pressing a back button or doing a refresh or anything.
code:
protocol_status(sn, rq, PROTOCOL_REDIRECT, NULL);
pblock_nvinsert("url", newurl, rq->vars);
return REQ_ABORTED;
Thanks in advance,
Kind Regards,
Nitin Soman

Thank you very much for the reply.
Where and how do i implement the reverse proxy.
the NSAPI plugin does some extra things like doing some cookie validations and changing the url and redirected.
Is it possible to do in case of reverse proxy?
Also will it affect the functionality of the current server.. i mean whether any changes required in the server which will affect its current functionality?

Hiding index file from URL.

I would like to know how to configure Sun Java Web Server 6.1 SP11 to only display the url and not the file name. For example, our website is going to a url http://newcompany/department/index.cfm. We would like it to go to http://newcompany/department/ and not display the index.cfm file name. Any help is greatly appreciated.

Hi,
I have i relevant point here.

The url now look like as follows:
http://myserver/cgi-bin/rwcgi60.exe?hary&server=myrepserver&report=apptxnrep
&parammform=yes
I do not wish to include the key "hary" also.
Is there any way i can specify any default parameters to be used everytime.

Hiding a web item through the command line URL

We use the Web API and command line processing heavily to pass in different filter values, variable values, data providers, etc. to our web reports. I had a requirement within a given area to launch our web reports with the Navigation block visible on the web template. In our commonly used 'default' web template, we currently allow the users to switch this item on/off once they are in the report, but we always have it come up Hidden initially.
My question is this: is there some trick to getting a web item property changed dynamically at execution time from Hidden=X to Hidden= ? I have tried numerous attempts to format a URL to change this behavior, but have been unsuccessful. A sample would be: &ITEM=GR6&MULTI=X&HIDDEN= --> this is intended to make all items with 'GR6' in the name unhidden. But in my case, it ends up making more web items visible than I want. Even specifying the Item name directly does not help.
I have also tried applying it in conjunction with a command sequence from the Web API docs. Is there a particular command that this has to go with (i.e. LDOC? RESET_WEB_ITEM? etc.)? We have a button on the web template that issues the command <SAP_BW_URL ITEM='GR6' MULTI='X' HIDDEN=''> when clicked -- this works fine. How do I apply the same type of logic to the initial URL within the command processing?
Any help would be appreciated. I know that I can resolve this by just creating a copy template with this web item set to Visible instead of Hidden at the launch. I was just thinking I could reuse the main web template and control it through the URL.
Thanks...

Heike,
maybe you can help me out on this one:
I'm trying to implement Tobias Kaufmann's How To Paper Web Printing with Excel.
Before calling the respective Abap classes from my web template, I want to hide the web item Hierarchical Filter Selection as this one comes out ugly when downloaded to Excel. So what I'm doing is, I first hide the Filter Selection and then call the Abap classes.
Here is the coding that I am using:

<td class="SAPBEXNavLine"><A href="<SAP_BW_URL
CMD_1='Item=HIERCONTEXTMENU_1&HIDDEN=X'
CMD_2='CMD=PROCESS_HELP_WINDOW&HELP_SERVICE=HELP_SERVICE_PRINT&ITEM=Table_1&SUBCMD=PRINT_EXCEL'>">
<IMG alt="Web Print with Excel" src="/sap/bw/Mime/bex/icons/print.gif" border=0></A></td>
This coding is working fine.
The problem is however, that the Hierarchical Filter Selection is now hidden in my web template. To unhide it, I thought I'd use the coding as above, but add a third command (CMD_3) to make that item visible again.
Here is the coding:

<td class="SAPBEXNavLine"><A href="<SAP_BW_URL CMD_1='Item=HIERCONTEXTMENU_1&HIDDEN=X'
CMD_2='CMD=PROCESS_HELP_WINDOW&HELP_SERVICE=HELP_SERVICE_PRINT&ITEM=Table_1&SUBCMD=PRINT_EXCEL'
CMD_3='Item=HIERCONTEXTMENU_1&HIDDEN='>">
<IMG alt="Web Print with Excel" src="/sap/bw/Mime/bex/icons/print.gif" border=0></A></td>
Unfortunately, only the commands CMD_1 and CMD_3 are being executed (which is kind of useless), the main command CMD_2 however is not.
Do you have any idea why this is happening and how to avoid this?
Really appreciating your help,
Regards,
Yogen

Key Mapping / URL hiding etc

Hi All APex Fans,
I'm in the process fo deploying a public application . ( i.e. zero authentication)
My URL is a typical HTMLDB URL which reveals certain key fields depending on which page of the application you are :
https://xx.xx.xx/htmldb/production/f?pp=xxx:2:1276630965096638381::NO::P2_USERTYPE,P2_USERID:employee,E0999
In other words , Managers are horrified by the fact that this URL reveals a bunch of key fields and information .
I can hide the first part using virtual host - but How do I create "key mappings" for the rest of the URL that starts with ?p=.....
Is there such a thing called Key Mapping available for HTMLDB ? ( similar to what we have in Oracle Reports)
Or is it much preferable to use Frames ( where the main frame stays static to the main URL and the Window frames play the HTML DB application pages without revealing HTMLDB URLS ?
Could be a dumb question - but I am also being a mouth piece to some Oracle Reports experts who feel very strongly about HTMLDB URLS which they said reveal too much of its key info.
Any suggestions ?
Indira

Only pass the items that you need to (for example primary keys of records you wish to manipulate). Most other item values can actually be set in the page itself.REPLY : That's exactly what I do / did.
typically , the USERID does not show on any page at all- it only shows up IF and only IF i open a "drill-down" pop-up in a new window from a main page that brances to it using a USERID.
- pop-ups typically don't show URLS. I know.
But I was only playing both good and devil's advocate to explain my anti-SQL-Injection strategy . I was trying to explain how I made sure "malicious users" won't be able to play with URL to reveal confidential info because I have other checks in the SQL code to block confidentation info, even if the user=USERID is displayed if that USERID is set from the browser.
Unfortunately , I had to show them how you could substitute portions of the pop-up URL , for the actual URL and play with URL.
( I won't say I have shot myself in the foot) - But now the users are expressing general concerns about setting this USERID from the browser.
Who said DBA's and developers only struggle with machines ... ? It's complicated for users to understand .
Are your managers horrified because they can see the information? Or are >>they horrified because they believe that if they can see it then it must be insecure? REPLY :: Yes - they horrified because they believe that if they can *see
I think the use of FRAMES can definitely soothe the climate because the blanket/main FRAME will always show a lovely https://xxx.xxx.com/myapp/
no matter which page of the application you are in.
Due Dilligence .
Any other ideas ?
Regards...

Hiding the port number from the url

Hi All,
In our applications built using Weblogic Portal 10.3, the url to access the application doesnt have the port number. It is simply like http://<server-name>/<context> no port at all. Is this some configuration that is available inside weblogic adminstration console? The domain has both the default port and the SSL port enabled which are running in 7001 and 7002 respectively. Please let me know as how to do this configuration as I am growing haywired on this it has been about a week and have not found an answer yet. Please throw some light on this and let me know if you need further details
Thanks
Ashwin

you should install apache server to handle all the requests on port 80 and froward it to weblogic server using wlp plugin
please check this link
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E13222_01/wls/docs81/plugins/apache.html
any request http://yourapp/context will be mapped to http://youapp:7001/context
