For Your Information: Understanding Web Addresses and URLs Every Web page has a uniform resource locator (URL), a Web address in a form your browser program can decipher. Like postal addresses and e-mail addresses, each URL contains specific parts that identify where a Web page is located. For example, the URL for Perspection's Web page is http://www.perspection.com where "http://" shows the address is on the Web and "www.perspection.com" shows the computer that stores the Web page. As you browse various pages, the URL includes their folders and file names. |
