Hide URL in ASP.NET application

Question

I am developing an ASP.NET application. But i would like to hide the URL so user don't know on which page he or she standing. Is their any solution?

What do you mean by hiding the URL? From browser address bar? If it is what you are looking for, then No is the answer.. But you can try changing into different route as explained in different way here — Guruprasad J Rao

Yes, hiding the URL isn't any more possible than it is possible to publish a book in such a way that readers can't look at the cover. — Robert Columbia

Use Server.Transfer . It doesn't change the URL.

Server.Transfer happens without the browser knowing anything, the browser request a page, but the server returns the content of another.

Server.Transfer() should be used when:

we don't need to show the real URL where we redirected the request in the users Web Browser
we want to transfer current page request to another .aspx page on the same server
we want to preserve server resources and avoid the unnecessary roundtrips to the server
we want to preserve Query String and Form Variables (optionally)

You can't hide the main URL like www.YourWebsite.com. Also replace all Response.Redirect with Server.Transfer

There is no solution unless you can force the user to browse only from a restricted environment in which you can control what software is installed or run. Even if you force the user to use a specific browser, they could use a tool like Fiddler to see what URLs they are going to.
