I really couldn't find a way to turn address bar search off. I just want to go to the absolute address i typed. I know add http:// on the front could do it. But no I just want an method only type in the domain！Like "a.service" which is a domain I created in a DNS server myself.
I know Firefox could do it by set keyword= false on "about:config" page.
For some reason I need to use Edge.
Please HELP!!
Many answers said turn off suggestion on privacy settings, but it do not work!
Unfortunately, there is no such solution as setting keyword.enabled=false to simply turn off the "search" function of the address bar for Edge. But if you want a pure address bar for URL visiting, here's what I do:
Go to Settings --> Privacy, search, and services --> Services --> Address bar and search --> Manage search engines --> Add. It allows you to create a custom search engine, but we want to design it in another way.
In the Add search engine prompt, design your custom search engine. What really matters is the last box. Make sure you add http://%s or https://%s.
Then, make sure you've made it as default search engine, so that you can simply type in URLs in the address bar.

I am developing a search engine extension for Firefox and I want to set it as (default) search engine using JavaScript. That means, if
somebody wants s/he should be able to type some query into the search field or the address field and the search should be redirected to the
extension. This is pretty easy to do when the target URL is a real address like http://mysearch.com (see this SO question and the relevant Mozilla Developer documentation), but it does not work if you try it with an extension URL
like resource://my-search-extension/search.html. Is there some way to still achieve this, e.g. by some hook listening on query inputs in
the search or address field?
P.D. You can set up a bookmark shortcut so that you can redirect a search like s keyword to an extension, but this not a convenient option
in my case.
I have page with few most used links, I want use it like my homepage and new tab page.
when I press ctrl + t for new tab I need see my page (it is done) but with empty address bar for faster writing in it (it is impossible for me).
.htaccess, javascript it doesn't matter. Any ideas? Thanks.
Your users do not expect that CTRL-T or ⌘-T will take them to a specific site or a page with a blank address bar, which is why browsers don't give you that capability. Unlike a native desktop application, you cannot control the workings of the user's browser. You should not even try.
In contrast to all the other questions I've found here on SO, I DON'T want a popup window. The trouble is that it seems by default that with Windows Live/Microsoft Account DotNetOpenAuth seems to set popupui=1 on the query string from RequestAuthentication by default.
There's a UIMode enum but that only seems to have the single value popup.
Does anyone know how to prevent it doing this?
update
According to the docs Windows Live has a display parameter which accepts touch, page, popup or none. Unfortunately, "page" results in popupui=1 in exactly the same way as "popup" does.
It seems that this isn't possible after all;

How can I stop search engines indexing part of my page? Is there an HTML5 element for this?
Its just a line of text that I want to hide (a co-worker doesnt want their name on google for some reason). Im thinking that I could inject the text with javascript, but I have heard google does sometimes look inside javascript files.
I also thought of using images instead of text, but im concerned how this will look cross device and platform. Ive noted text rendering can differ on mac and pc and thats before ive had to think about mobile devices, retina displays, etc.
Thanks
You can't hide content unless you use the methods you've already outlined above. Your best bet is to use JavaScript in an external file and then block that file using robots.txt.
I have a referral project.
In that there is an agent between the
affiliate(my site) and the target site.
So all hyperlinks displayed in my
site will be redirected to the agents
site and then it is redirected to the
target site.
The hyperlink itself is the link to
the agents site.
So i am displaying all products. I
have given links to them. When users
hover a hyeprlink you can see the
href text displayed in the status bar
which will be the agents site.
The requirement is the hyperlinks of
an agent site should not be displayed
in the status bar.
My solutions and assumptions
So i can use span onclick =
window.location = hrefOfAgentLink.
I have seen in other sites that they
redirect to another scripting page
and then the redirection takes
place. for example
http://sitename.com/click/id=32.
The id refers to the hyperlink in
database. hope they fetch the link
and they do a location header to
redirect to the agent page.
Why so? because the user should not see where the link goes.
I want to know whether there is(are) any other option(s) so that the hyperlink will not be visible in the status bar and in the address bar when it is redirecting.
Anyway when redirecting the agents url is not visible because it immediately redirects to the target site.
I would like to have the stackoverflow users suggestions. Thank you.
You used to be able to set the status bar message using javascript, but you can not do that reliably anymore. This is most probably because the browser wants to protect the user. Instead of trying to hide the URL, perhaps you should work on a "redirect-URL" that looks reliable and that makes it obvious to the user both that it is a redirect-URL and where it is going. For example this kind of URL would both make me aware of where I am going and that my access is going to be recorded:
tracker.my-ad-network.com/stacktrace.com/ad/568
Instead of something like this (that would not make me feel safe):
dashj2.gggfbad.com/index.php?aid=1232808432&ref=123432.
And as noted above, start accepting serious attempt to help you or people will simply stop :)

You can use the new data attribute so your code would look something like this:
link text
Then in your JS, if you're using jQuery for example:
$('a').click(function(e){
e.preventDefault();
var loc = $(this).data('redir');
window.location = loc;
}
Not too hacky for what you're trying to accomplish.
