accessing my website using ip address

[ssk_the_gr8]

suppose u want to visit yahoo.com we can visit by typing it's ip address Yahoo!

i have a website & i want to access it using the ip address but it gives error 404
i use 0catch.com for the webhosting

is it using a single ip address for all it's websites?

how can i use the ip address to access my website?

You need static IP for that, otherwise it won't work. They are generally configured using NAT or vhosts.

I guess you didn't bought Static IP, so it won't work in your case.

If you want that, you need to buy a Static IP and ask your hosting provider to map that IP on your hosting.

is there someway to pass ip address along with the name of my website in the http header... something like that.. (read it somewhere) ?

No idea what you are talking about, but if your hosting is configured as virtual hosts, which I guess 100% in this case, by no means you can access your site using IP address.

Well it can be done via socket/telnet, but I don't know how to do that in a browser.

Apache Week. HTTP/1.1

You just have to telnet to port 80 by IP and mention the host for the HTTP request.
