So.. let's say I am working with the default page of a directory, so when you first load the page, the url looks like this:

http://site.net/directory/

In that default page (let's call it default.aspx), I have a form that posts back to itself:

<form method="post" action="">

When I use the form uploaded onto my webspace (hosting with 1&1), it takes me to:

http://site.net/directory/default.aspx

Now, what I really want is for that default.aspx not to show up at the end of the url. I've been able to get that to work just playing around on my desktop with action="./" and action="../directory/", but neither translate into working on the webspace.

So, long story short, anyone know how to do that?


[P.S. Hi, everybody!]

A "post" method needs a physical page name to post to.

Why is it that important that the URL changes?

Maybe:
- check if it is posted
- redirect it back to /?dfgd= .....

It posts no problem, and I'd rather show the page name than show a query string.

It isn't. It isn't particularly important at all; it's just a stylistic thing I'd like to achieve.
