Some applications (such as Plone) default to serving http on ports other than 80 (eg 8080).
Typically, to view those webapps you need to load http://mysite.tld:8080
instead of just http://mysite.tld
(presuming you also have a 'standard' website running on port 80).
Is there a way to disguise and/or hide the port number from showing up in the address bar so that visitors don't know they're not on the standard http port? If so, how? Is a URL rewrite the proper approach?

One may set up a sort of portal using Apache with mod_proxy on
:80
and make it to proxy requests foranything
:anywhere
.
