your using frames. it's like a window. its like you being inside looking through the window rather than you being outside viewing whatever. frames are stupid anyway.

To have what you are asking for, you would need to go to the page the frame points to, http://64.177.167.166/index.html and from there the URL changes based on the page you go to.
I have a friend who is running a server on his computer, and becasue he has a dynamic address, he uses a service that hosts his domain name, and then in a full fram points to his current IP address (his server runs a progam that lets the service know his current IP address).
I was wondering if this is the same thing you are doing, as I cannot see another reason to have a domain name with a full frame that just points out to an IP address.
If this is what you are doing, then to have URL's like you describe will be based on your provider.

PS. If you are using a system like my firend is, then when you read this the URL I gave above may not work as the IP address may have changed. To find current one, go to the main URL (http://www.floorphysics.com/) and before clicking anywhere in the browser window, do VIEW -> SOURCE and you will find the current IP's URL in the source code.

Masking == frames
If you are the registrant for that domain name, you should find a reputable host that will host you. It appears you're with someone who uses Alabanza's server farm so you should be able to have the domain name hosted. You talk to the host and then edit your registrar record for the domain name so the DNS information points to the host's name servers (they will supply you with the name server information).
