2. Basic Concepts
A Website is a set of related web pages served from a
single web domain.
A website is hosted on a web server, accessible
through an Internet address known as a Uniform
Resource Locator (URL).
All publicly accessible websites collectively constitute
the World Wide Web.
HTTP ( Hyper Text Transfer Protocol) The Hypertext
Transfer Protocol (HTTP) is an application protocol for
distributed, collaborative, hypermedia information
systems
3. Web Browsers
The purpose of a web browser (such as Google Chrome,
Internet Explorer, Firefox, Safari) is to read HTML
documents and display them as web pages. The browser
does not display the HTML tags, but uses the tags to
interpret the content of the page
4. Web Page
Static web pages are often HTML documents stored as
files in the file system and made available by the web
browser.
<html>

These pages contain "server-side" code, which allows
the server to generate unique content each time the
page is loaded.
11. Server-Side scripting
Server-side scripting is a technique used in website design which involves
embedding scripts in an HTML source code which results in a user's (client's)
request to the server website being handled by a script running server-side before
the server responds to the client's request.
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<body>

</body>
</html>

function, typically executing the
program's instructions in a central
process

study, and change the software in any
way, and the source code is openly
shared so that people are encouraged to
voluntarily improve the design of the
software.
