Hi,

Let say I have siteA and siteB, what I want to do is on siteA create a link to siteB which open a new window then showing siteB homepage, BUT i want the URL of siteB is complete hidden, which means I want the visitors to go to siteB only through the link on siteA (they can't find out what the URL for siteB is).

Is that possible or any special tool for doing that?

Thanks!

First question is WHY do you want to do that ??
If Site B is on a web server, it WILL get spidered and eventually show up on the search engines.

Second, if a web site owner pulled that stunt on me, I would just leave, and I'd wager a lot of people would be equally annoyed, especially if they can ONLY get to site B thru site A.

You'd have to open site B in a chromeless window.. which takes away their ability to use the browser menus, buttons etc too-- extremely aggravating.

You could try using frames - either:

1) Include a link on SiteA to another page on SiteA which uses frames so you can view SiteB from SiteA

OR

2) Simply put the frame of SiteB on the page you want, rather than putting a link, so visitors can see SiteB from SiteA.

The main URL would not be visible from the page unless the visitor looked at the source code, which the average Joe will probably not do

You could avoid siteB being indexed with a simple .htaccess script Im sure though.

eewww, whym frames... hisss. whym is right, though. you could use frames to do that (they're just starting to get out of date)

hmmmm...
you could also use a php include script.. maybe?

on site a:
<?php
include "siteb"
?>
only problem with that is you would have to do alot of working to keep site b within sitea, but it could be done.
