Hide url in address bar?  en

Hello folks. So what I'm wanting to do is hide a web page url from showing in a browser's address bar, and can't find a check box in the X5 software that makes this possible. 

example.

url is https://www.sitename/pagename.html (which shows in browser address bar)
What is needed is either address bar is hidden for selected web page (preferred) or address bar shows no url

Can this be done in your software?

Thank you.

John, my previous reply seems to have vanished into the ether! So here we go again ...

The solution in the link is not suitable.

I have digital products (e-cards) that offers the buyer the opportunity to view another browser-viewable digital product. I do not want the second product to be identifiable in any web browser, hence the wish to obscure/hide the url. 

I am now looking at redirects, and cloaking. But it would be great if there was a software solution within X5.

Thanks for your suggested solution.

I guess you know that: what is shown in a browser, can be inspected; normally you don't need the browsers address field to see where things comes from.
