Question : Hosting other domains under a sub folder

Hi everyone, first question here although I have been reading for quite some time.

I have web space hosted by uk cheapest with an existing domain abc.com in the root of my site. I have much more space than I need so I want to host other domains/sites www.123.com in subfolders of my main site.

I use Daily.co.uk to manage my domains.

I create sub folder in the root of my site www.abc.com/123 and place an index page. Then in my Daily control panel I setup a framed web forward for my new domain www.123.com to www.abc.com/123 . So far this works well, accessing www.123.com in my browser takes me to the new index page and displays www.123.com in the address bar, however when hovering over any links on the index page the full path is displayed in the status bar www.abc.com/123/index.htm.

Is there a way through maybe htaccess or any other way to get the browser status to show the new url www.123.com/whatever/?

Many thanks

The route taken is configured in the routers themselves.

Bottom line:  Put the servers on the same LAN.

HTTP does not take up much bandwidth and should do fine over the VPN or WAN link, whatever you have.

That is the best I can advise given that the specifications of the link between the two buildings are a little unclear.
