Is it possible to alter the URL address displayed in my browser?

Hello Everyone
I work in Special FX for a TV show largely in computer graphics. I specialize in Maya, Photoshop, Illustratro and AutoCad. However I have a little Dreamweaver experience and got roped into a new project.
Here is the effect I need.
Someone surfing the web.
I've built a website, uploaded it and it works great. The only problem is our legal department won't let the URL display my website. I have to display one that is not a registered domain.
Is there any way to display an alternate URL in the address bar? A fake one, so to speak?
This website will be displayed on a iPad tablet running safari.
Thanks in advance.

No. You can't fool a browser into displaying a url that does not exist in the address bar. It must reference a page on a registered domain - or an ip address - but not a fake url. You could have a frame hosted at on one domain reference a page from another domain - but the source url is still not hidden. What exactly are you trying to do here?

When I open a second Firefox browser window, the URL address window, instead of showing the URL, says "Go to a Web Site;" also, and more importantly, the "back" button is greyed out. This is a new problem, and the first Firefox window I open works fine.

After I open the first Firefox browser window, any additional window I open does not open my homepage, but opens a blank page with "New Tab" showing on the tab. An orange "Firefox" tab with a drop down arrow shows at the upper left hand corner of the screen. All of the options (File, Edit, etc.) are greyed out, however they will work if you move your cursor over them.
The URL address window says "Go to a Web Site". After I've gone to a website, the back button remains greyed out and I am not able to go back to a previous page. My RoboForm and Netcraft toolbars only show up in an abbreviate form. The add-on bar doesn't show up at all.
Again, this is a recent problem, and only happens after I've opened one browser window (which works fine) and then open additional browser windows (as few as one additional).

I had this same problem. Seems to be caused by the web developer tool bar FF extension (this started happening after a recent update to that extension). After disabling it, my FF is back to normal :)

Is it possible to change the URL of an application?

Hi All,
I was working with the oracle apex and created few applications almost a year back, due to my higher studies there is a gap with the tool..and finally I am in.
Am planning to create an application which will be similar like a personal website.My doubt here is ..whether it's possible to change the URL by keeping a simple one which includes my name also
instead of having this big..
http://apex.oracle.com/pls/apex/f?p=10221:1:116416608594529
I can understand that the whole URL describes the appln no,page no and session ID but its my doubt possible or not..If possible then how to proceed?
Thanks
with Regards,
Ramya.

If you are just looking for a nice and short URL to start your application, why not just use a URL shortener service like goo.gl ?
Just put in your long URL and it will create a nice and short URL for you... for example, the above URL is now http://goo.gl/FijYxn

Is there a way to prevent Robohelp WebHelp from appending characters to the end of the URL address for a TOC Entry?

I am running RoboHelp 10 on Windows 7 Enterprise SP1 64 bit OS.
WebHelp is appending characters to the end of the TOC entry's URL address. The characters "bc-n" where n is a number are being generated for all of the TOC Page Entries when I generate WebHelp output. We are exporting the HTML files for import into an application. The TOC Page Properties Link to: property does not contain the characters in RoboHelp.
We have standardized names defined for our application and the appended characters are not going to work in the application.
cid:[email protected]
When I use the generated html output in IE10 Version 10.0.9200.16635 Update Versions: 10.0.7 (KB2846071) the characters show up in the URL when I hover the mouse over the TOC entry as shown in the screenshot below.
cid:[email protected]
The two screenshots show that the Link to property does not have the characters "bc-7" but the URL address does.
Is there a setting or way to configure RoboHelp to prevent Robohelp WebHelp from generating and appending characters to the end of the URL address for TOC Entries?

I have never known Rh add any characters so I think something else is at play here. Please open one of the sample projects and see what happens there. Click Open on the RoboHelp Starter page and then click Samples in the ribbon on the left.

Possible to know the URL of page while within the working iWeb on desktop?

Is it possible to know the URL of any page in a website by looking at the working iWeb copy on the desktop? I made my website over a year ago and used iWeb '06 and cannot remember that far back. Now I am using iWeb '08. I keep getting SORRY messages when I hit the VISIT button.
This is making me nervous.

Why is most of the URL address, except for the domain name, in gray font? It's difficult to read. I would like to make the entire address font in black

[http://pics.livejournal.com/tersa/pic/006gzfsf Screenshot of the behavior]
Before I upgraded to Firefox 6.0, the URL address was displayed in black text.
After upgrading, it is now displaying only the core domain name (e.g, mozilla.com) in black text, while any extra text (like, https://support. ) is grayed out.
It is very difficult to read this gray text on my monitor. I'd like to make it so that the entire address is displayed in black text, but I couldn't seem to find any kind of configuration setting under Options to change this.
Please let me know if I can modify the URL display to be all black again.

That is a new feature in Firefox to highlight the domain in the URL bar. You can change a preference to make the entire URL dark.
Change a preference:
#type '''''about:config''''' in the Location/URL bar and press Enter.
#if you see a warning, accept (promise to be careful)
#Filter: '''''browser.urlbar.formatting.enabled'''''
#in lower panel, double-click that item to toggle value to '''''false'''''
I am not sure whether or not you need to re-start Firefox after doing the above for the change to take effect. Test and if it does not work, then re-start Firefox and test again.

How do I eliminate the http identity information on the url address line"

When you click on the down arrow on the HTTP line where the last URL address you keyed in is displayed - it will show the history of the last URL addresses you keyed in and visited. It will also display a second line known as "identity information". How do I get rid of this useless piece of information that forces a second useless line to be displayed?? I just want the URL addresses I had keyed in before to be displayed (one per line). Like all previous versions of Firefox and IE.
How do I do it????

Searching from the url address window has stopped working

If I type a string in the url address bar and touch enter, I now get an error message saying that it's not a valid web address: "The URL is not valid and cannot be loaded." It no longer searches in google for results. I've checked my about:config settings and they seem fine; keyword.url status is "default" and type is "string" with a blank value; for keyword.enabled, the status is "default", type is "boolean", and value is "true".

Hi,
You can also check '''browser.search.defaultenginename''' which has to be '''Google''' in this case.
If problems persist you can use [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/searchreset/ SearchReset].

Get the url address of current form

Hi,
Any one knows how to get the url address of the current form ?
Thanks.
Ivan

You can probably use Java Script at in the html which starts the form then pass the value into the form using a user define Form's parameter.

The URL address line box, google earch box have disappeared, please help!

The URL address box and the Google search engine box normally at the top of the page have disappeared. Also the back/frorad buttons have disappeared - please help!

Hi,
Please try going to '''View''' (or '''Alt''' + '''V''') > '''Toolbars''' and enable (tick) '''Navigation Toolbar'''. Alternatively right-click on the '''+''' on the right side of the last tab or the empty space after and choose '''Navigation Toolbar'''.

Is it possible to customise the email address used to send iCal invites?

Hi,
I am trying to find out if it is possible to customise the email address used by iCal to send an invite.
i.e. each user would like their email address to be used rather than a generic one.
Tks
Ben

Sorry, that isn't possible. The email address is used as the account name. If you need to change it, a new account would need to be created.

Can we change the from address displayed in gmail

Hi,
I am using javamail to send mails from gmail account. I was able to change the from name in e- mail with the name
I specified. But can I use javamail to change the from address displayed in gmail ? If its possible please tell me how.
Urgent requirement in my project. Please help.
Example.
Now its displayed like this.
specifiedName<mail id from which campaigns are sent>
I want to change it to
specifiedName <specified email id> [ I want to mask the original id]

JavaMail will let you set the From address to whatever you want, but Gmail might
not let you send a message with a From address that doesn't match the account
you're using for sending, or it might override the From address you set to be the
From address corresponding to the account.
The best approach is to send the message from an account that matches the
From address. If you can't do that, you probably need another ISP or your own
mail server that will allow you to specify whatever you want.
