        Saw that, but that just redirects it rather than masks the url

          That would work. What you have done here is create a frame within a web page and point that frame at the old web site. This is fundamentally how "mashups" work, for example when you see a web site with the ftse 100 share prices, the google weather report and the news headlines, like those big screens in the lobbies of the big company foyers. Lots of frames all pointing to different places.

          So I think you have cracked it. If as and when you want to make the switch over to the new domain you can either pop a redirect script into an index.htm, or do a domain redirect on the domain hosts CPanel.

          PM me for further infos.

            Well it depends

            If you're running the site in an iframe, the URL visible in the address bar will never change when you navigate to other pages. So if, for example, you're taking payment, the user could get concerned over the lack of a 'padlock'.

              New Vidahost doesn't use cPanel, and redirects don't mask the address, they just redirect you to the new one.

              It's the site for a museum so no payments to take, its not perfect but will do for long enough that I can get the people running the place to agree what they want the new website to look like

                This shouldn't be done with code. The proper way to do it to point the your DNS providers nameserver to your hosting provider. You'll also need to tell your hosting provider to use the new address.

                  Its a quick and dirty solution until the site is overhauled

                    It's not particularly difficult to do, might take a day or 2 for the host/dns to take effect, but only a few mins effort for you.

                      It must use something. You are correct, redirects just redirect. That is why I prefixed this with the phrase "when you are ready to switch over". This should have hit the "he mains after I need this sneaky hack-around" receptors in your frontal lobes.
