Building Web Sites • But first . . . an overview of the Internet and Web pages
The Internet • A network of networks . . . • With rules (protocols) . . . • For sending and receiving information (packets)
Intranet • A subset of the Internet, available only to members of the organization that set it up
WWW • The World Wide Web • Or just “The Web” • A system on the Internet that connects sites through hypertext links
The browser requests a page from the server The page is downloaded to your machine The browser interprets HTML in the page to display it on your screen The Web: How It Works
URL • Uniform Resource Locator • The address of a site on the Internet
URL Address Format It’s a Hypertext Transfer Protocol address. It’s a World Wide Web document. (But often not used.) http://www.clunet.edu/ The domain name, the name of the server. The suffix, or domain designator, indicating the kind of site. Who assigns domain names? http://www.icann.org/
Domain Designators • org = organization • gov = government agency • k12.__.us = public schools • mil = military agency • com = business • edu = university • net = network • de = Germany
The pathname, indicating the name of the page and where it is in the server. It’s in a directory. URL Address Format The directory. The page. http://public.clunet.edu/School_of_Education/CLU.html
The ~ symbol (tilde) indicates a part of the path above the sbauer directory that can be ignored. URL Address Format CLU has more than one server. This is the server used to host student and faculty web pages. http://public.clunet.edu/~sbauer/Cleo/index.htm
