masking a redirect page in wordpress

I've been working on this now for 3 days... :confused:
I need to redirect a page in Wordpress and I want to mask it. I found out how to redirect the page, but need to mask it.

I want to redirect
abc.com/report to xyz.com
and I want to mask xyz.com so it shows my URL - abc.com/report

I know I can use pretty links pro but I really don't want to spend $100 just for the redirect.
Can anyone help?
Thanks,
Jenny

    To mask a URL you can use iframe. There's a plugin for iframe and its free.

    No redirect needed. On the page, just use the iframe.

    If you have access to ftp just plop an index.php file in that folder with the following code in it.

    Code:
    <?php
    header("Location:  http://www.warriorplus.com/w/a/zcb68");
?>
    Just replace the URL above with your code.

      Derek,
      So I would replace
      http://www.warriorplus.com/w/a/zcb68

      with... my code (sorry, but what's my code) This is totally new to me!

      I tried it with
      http://www.xyz.com/w/a/zcb68

      and with http://www.xyz.com
      and nothing happened - wrong code obviously

    Iframing is the way to go. You can also mask your domain via your DNS settings with your registrar.

      thanks everyone... it seems iframes are one way to go, but can anyone tell me exactly what to do. I've been checking online and have found no info as to what I should do with the iframe.

    I suggest the EasyRedirect plugin. I use it for my site and its works well. It creates a little box below your text entry box lets you tick a box and type the new url you want to redirect to.
