5. Web addresses and URLs

 Each computer on the Internet has an unique identification
number, called an IP (Internet Protocol) address.
 The IP addressing system currently in use on the Internet uses a
four-part number.
 Each part of the address is a number ranging from 0 to
255, and each part is separated from the previous part by a
period, for example: 106.29.242.17.
 Although each computer connected to the Internet has a
unique IP address, most Web browsers use domain name
addressing to locate Web sites and pages.

 Text files on Web servers are coded with HTML formatting tags
that enable your browser to read text.
 The tag that gives HTML its power, however, is the anchor tag.
 Each anchor tag used in an HTML document, or Web
page, creates a hypertext link or hypermedia link to other
HTML documents or to other media.
 These links are a different color than other text on the
page, and are sometimes underlined. When you click the
link, you connect to another Web page.
