Like this?

What do you mean shorten in the form of munna?

Do you mean shorten like this forum does? eg: http://somesite.com/some/really/long...ds/oh/it/ended

Or how to alias a URL?

thank you inadvamce

Then buy the domain name munna.com/.net/.org/.whatever

And tell your DNS server to redirect to google.com. Or if you're on a LAN, add munna to your DHCP server (pointing to google.com or something).

no...
am asking about , is there any website to short the link..
like that..

please help me
thank you in advance

No, according to ICANN or whoever, a domain must have an extension (which are limited again by ICANN).

If it could be shortened like that, why would anyone bother buying a domain name?

Perhaps he means this - http://tinyurl.com/

Dunno, I've shorted both the URL and the associated text, and you still want more.
I'm out of ideas, and have no idea what it is you're trying to achieve.

the solution to avoid conformation id is i have to send the link with out http:// and .com

so simply it is munna...

please help me
thankj you in advance

You can't have a domain of just "munna", see ICANN's website.

It's not possible for WAN, but it is possible on LAN. Perhaps explain what you want? And why you want it?

Hmm.. Are you trying to work around the CAPTCHA?

Right I ma going to assume that this is what you wanted,

You wanted to scarp a link to your friends, but you want you friends to see just munna like

Quote:

---

Heyy this is my website guys munna

---

you don't want this

Quote:

---

Heyy this is my website guys www.google.com

---

If this is what you wanted, go to your friends scrap pad and type this

Code:

---

<a hred="www.google.com">munna</a>

---

In the place of "www.google.com" you can place any valid url so that when click in munna it will be redirected to that site.

And more over u have more scarp tip on top the page in orkut. Have a look at it as well.
Hope this is what your have been looking for.

my purpose is to avoid the conformation id..


is there any site(website) to create a redirected url like munna(without http:// and .com)

please help me

thank you in advance

For Pete's sake, NO!
Listen, you can't have a WAN domain like that, see ICANN's Website!

There are rules, such as it must have a extension (which are limited), must be greater than 3 characters but less than 64 or something, must only contain [0-9],[A-B],-. Read ICANNs website before asking the same question again.

What system are you on that asks for a confirmation code?

window and linux...
it will ask in all operating systems.

Huh? Operating system? I still don't have a clue what you want.

So, please, give us a step-by-step description of what you do, what you want to happen and what actually happens.

ok...
let me explain..
am using windows machine..

i think you know about www.orkut.com
here i have many friends..
to them i have to send a link...

for example it is www.munna.notlong.com

if i send as it is it will ask some conformation at the time of scrapping.
so it is waste of time..

am asking about...
is there any website or any way to to short the url like "munna" .( the converted or redirected link shoud not contain http:// and .com)
so, that at the time of scrap it will not ask any conformation becouse an sending the munna redirected link directly...


can you please help me

thank you in advamnce

Well as far i can see there no way that you can over come that confirmation, it is there for security reason. Since you are entering content from another website or giving link to one more web site, orkut wants to have some sort of confirmation before you post your scrap.

One reason to include that image verification is to avoid spammers.

You cant escape that, its not only in that website, its on almost all webpage you can find. Even on cprogramming, if you haven't logged and trying to search something on the form you will be asked to enters some random 5 Alpha-numeric char before you click on search button.
