URL cloaking frequently involves the trick of displaying the body content as a frame of a frameset. A frameset with no borders look very much like a standalone page, but the location stays constant as the frameset page is still in force.

This is not a Web development forum, but, well, here is an idea:

Quote:
<html>
<title>URL Cloaking Test</title>
<frameset rows="100%" cols="100%" frameborder="0">
<frame name="content" src="dir/index.php" />
<noframes>
Your browser does not support frames.
</noframes>
</frameset>
</html>
This does not require any server configuration.

In httpd.conf I believe that if you set DocumentRoot to www.example.org/www/pub and then set DirectoryIndex to what documents you will allow for the default such as index.html, index.php, index.htm, etc that should take care of the problem. Of course if you have documents in sub directories that you want to display then those sub directories will be displayed. You could then use cbkihong's solution.
