An internet address (a URL, or Uniform Resource Locator) contains a domain name. h t t p://xtra.co.nz is an internet address (URL) containing the domain name of xtra.co.nz. h t t p://xtra.co.nz/help is another example where the path following the domain leads you to a specific webpage within the domain. I have my own domain name but do not have a web address as I have no need of one. I have the domain to give me a recognisable email address "myname@mydomain.co.nz" looks better than "myname@xtra.co.nz" as an example. > Whats the difference between client and server > software? Client software is installed on your PC. Server software is installed on the network (or internet) system that you connect to. |
