Is there a script out there that masks or hides the url to a web page? I have a download page that i only want people who buy to go to but i dont want a user/pass set up just want them to pay and go to the page that has the stuff on it. they cant see the url though becuase they cant come back more than once. anyone know of anything?

You can use URL cloaking.

I have done it by simply copying the content from another source, giving it a unique URL and allowing access that way.

You will have to keep track of the valid identifiers, and remove them after access, but other than that, the management is minimal.

So - when someone pays, you issue an id and save it in a file or database, or as a URL in a file - save it somehow. When the person accesses the content, you delete the id. If there is no id, deny access.

Good luck.

Im pretty new to all of this. How would I use cloaking? I can set up a database to store them at and delete them but is there an automated way of doing this so i didnt have to sit at the computer 24/7 waiting for someone to buy it then make the url lol.

Before you invest any effort, see if someone else has code like that on hotscripts. Or you could type "url cloaking script free" in on google.

No sense reinventing the wheel - or sitting at the computer all the time.
