I apologise if this is in the wrong forum, I couldn't find any other more suitable.<br />
<br />
My question:<br />
<br />
I have seen website address as i.p numbers. How can I find out the i.p. address of my .co.uk domain so that I can access it by typing in e.g. <!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://111.111.111">http://111.111.111</a><!-- m -->, or is this not possible.<br />
<br />
If this is not, is it possible to disguise a url by adding characters that do not change the address e.g. w#w#w#.#g#o#o#g#l#e#.#c#o#.#u#k#??<br />
<br />
Will a CGI path work if it is a .co.uk redirect address.<br />
<br />
If anyone could answer any of the above, I would be very grateful.<br />
<br />

That gives you the IP address that the name yahoo.com resolves to. Keep in mind that this may not be the final destination computer (lots more networking may go on behind the scenes.)<br />
