You cannot prevent the user from seeing the URL to which you submit a form,
for obvious security reasons. You cannot prevent the user from being able to
see how the form works.

If you want to send data to a URL, and you don't want the user to see that
URL, don't put it in your form. Instead, let the user submit data to another
URL, and have the CF program at that URL send data to the ultimate
destination URL using CFHTTP.
