How to hide the iframe link (not the iframe)

I need to make the iframe link not recognizable. I offer this as a subscription site and I can't have the real link visible.
<tr>
<td height="100%">
<iframe src="ebindx.html" frameborder="0" width="100%" height="100%"></iframe>
</td>
</tr>
I do not program, but I can make sure things are put in the right place.

As far as I know, it's impossible. (Which could work, is running 45 times SetTimeout("TheFunctionIAmCurrentlyIn()",100) in JavaScript.(Js can be turned off, so what?))

So you want to hide ebindx.html so someone can't find it? Impossible. Actually, technically impossible. In order for the browser to display the page, you need to set that src attribute. Even if you do it via Javascript, someone can just "View generated source" (which I think is functionality provided by the WebDeveloper plugin in Firefox) to see the source after Javascript changes it. I'm sure there are other ways to find the URL as well.
The only way you can be safe is to make the page you're embedding require some sort of login.

I am agree with " gerit99" and "pickle". You can block it in robots.txt. You can't hide the iframe itself.
