big-dog1965 Posted March 12, 2009 Share Posted March 12, 2009 How would I mask a account activation link in an email, The sample below shows how the user receives the email. I don’t want them to see the full path of the url. Hi Name Your account has been created but you would need to confirm it first before you can have access to the protected area. Please click http;//website.com/Signup/confirm.php?confirmkey=32fa7234b61d9eb200dda71e713c744 to confirm your activation If your email client does not support HTML messages open a new browser then copy the above URL and paste it in the location bar. If you encounter any problems let us know so that we can help you out. Regards Administrator Department This is where the link comes from in a config.php file. confirm.php process some data and such to make the user able to log in and stuff. $confirm = "http://" . $_SERVER['HTTP_HOST'] . "/Signup/confirm.php"; Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/149081-masking-php-link-of-sorts/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
ILMV Posted March 12, 2009 Share Posted March 12, 2009 You cannot mask it, I mean you can set a link up like this... <a href="http://www.mydomain.com">This Link Isn't Masked</a> But that wouldn't stop people from viewing the source? Why do you want to mask it, what are you trying to achieve?
