masking URLs
Hi Is there any way to mask URL value with some text?? Newuser1389
 * You'll have to be more precise in your question. Are you referring to querying? --Jan &#34;Saruman!&#34; S. 11:29, 28 May 2012 (CEST)
 * I want to display custom text instead of url in an article page and property's page. The property has url type and it's value is url. But I want to mask it by some custom text. As an example my url value is http://semantic-mediawiki.org/w/index.php?title=Help_talk:Type_URL and I want to display it like this: Type_URL . Excuse me about my bad english and thank you for your attention. Thanks for your help in advance.--Newuser1389 14:31, 28 May 2012 (CEST)
 * Is there a specific reason why you can't use the alternate link notation  Type_URL ? --Jan &#34;Saruman!&#34; S. 14:41, 28 May 2012 (CEST)
 * My property is a record consist of a text field and url field. Altenate text works on an article page but not on a proprty's page.
 * On a property page, you don't want to change the display of the value of a field; it wouldn't be right if I could declare  =  and show  =  on the property page. So your masking question gets more and more confusing to me... --Jan &#34;Saruman!&#34; S. 15:35, 28 May 2012 (CEST)
 * I'm using semanitic-mediawiki on a book indexing project. each property is a keyword that has some descriptive text and a url value linking to the book page. in my keyword page ( proprty's page) there are plenty of url's that make keyword page too messy. I want to show a page number instead of a url...--Newuser1389 15:53, 28 May 2012 (CEST)
 * That's not what the property pages are for, so you might want to rethink your information model. --Jan &#34;Saruman!&#34; S. 15:58, 28 May 2012 (CEST)
 * You are right. I have to do that and may I find a temporary solution! Thanks a lot
