InfoPath Dev

This question was related to the Forms Services URL that SharePoint generates when you hit the "New" button in a Form Library. Every time a I publish a new version of the form this "New" URL changes thus requiring me to change any links to this form on other pages (otherwise users see the old form or an error).

Is it possible to hide a button based on your connection status? (e.g. Online/Offline). And without code? For example, I'd like to hide a Refresh button if you're online.

Unless I'm wrong, whenever you publish an InfoPath Form, it creates a new version/filename of the template. Is there a way to have a permanent shortcut (e.g. on a SharePoint Site) to the form that doesn't have to be changed after each publish?
