Create a servlet and in web.xml, where the servlet is defined, add tag url-pattern. Write corresponding url pattern in it. In this servlet, now use response.sendRedirect("URL"). Now your browser will show url-pattern instead of URL.

Are you looking for URLRewriting? It can be done using JSPs or Servlets.

I am not sure if you can do this properly using Javascript, but you can change the address of the page using, but I would suggest using it at Server Side.

Check out the article on Wikipedia to get a fair info on it.

I don't think there is a way to make the browser's address bar show something other than the URL of the page that is currently being displayed.

That limitation is probably a good thing, since it would allow nasty websites to spoof the user.
