Browser Steps
- You type http://java.sun.com/index.html into the browser's
address
- The browser examines the part of the URL between the double
slash and the first single slash
- In this case: java.sun.com
- This identifies the computer to which you want to connect
- Because it contains letters, this part of the URL is a domain
name
- The browser sends a quest to a DNS server to obtain the
Internet address of the computer with the domain name
java.sun.com
