I would think other languages wouldn't call it WWW because World Wide Web would translate to other words that don't start with W.

A "web" site just means that there is a Hypertext Transfer\nProtocol server running which will communicate with you\n(usually your browser) via HTTP.\n\nAn "ftp" site is a similar concept except that it communicates\nusing the File Transfer Protocol,\n\nThe two protocols can both be used to transfer files, although\nwe usually think of an HTTP server downloading pictures and\ntext (web pags) to a browser, versus an FTP server providing\nboth downloads and uploads via some special FTP client.\n\nOne difference is that FTP provides the concept of a "user",\nso it supports accounts and passwords (whereas HTTP web sites\nare *usually* open to anyone).   Also, it is just as convenient\nto upload a file with FTP as it is to download it.\n\nBy convention, many FTP servers provide "anonymous" access,\nwhich allows you to log in with account "ftp" (or "anonymous")\nand use any string as the password.  For *those* sites, you\ncan actually use your *browser* to communicate via FTP rather\nthan via HTTP.  Note that in a URL, the protocol is specified\nas the leading string before the colon.  So rather than\nspecifying "http://answers.yahoo.com" (with a leading "http"),\nyou can specify an anonymous ftp site, specifying the "ftp"\nprotocol, for example:\n\nftp://ftp.sunfreeware.com

This is an email address. When there is an "@something.com", that means, 99.9% of the time, that it is and email. A website would be "www.something.com"

If its under a lot of load you should get a different message about resource conflict from their server. The page cannot be displayed message means that your browser can't even contact the other site. It probably means their server is off due to a fault, cannot be reached DNS (domain name service) error, or a computer on route to theirs is down. I would guess its most likely their personal servers down for maintanence.

http is a internet protocol (it comes from hyper transfer type protocol), while www (world wide web is part of the adress for the site you want to search).

Maybe you're not including the http://www. when you type in the link.

I said it once... I'll say it again... It means Explorer blocked something on that website (a popup, phishing program, etc) you can double click it to see more details on what is going on.

if it doesn't have the www then the first name is the name of the server that the page is running from. so for the current page that i am on here is the url.\nhttp://answers.yahoo.com/question/\nthe http:// means i am on a non secured server\nanswers is the name of teh server that belongs to yahoo\nyahoo is the domain name that is registered\n.com is the level of internet it is on.\n/question/ is the directory name of where the current page is located at on the server.\nthats just a quick rundown of the url naming conventions

Dont bother to check for duplication. there are millions of webpages scattered around the world and the probability of someone seeing both is almost zero.\n    Go ahead and host your webpage.

Some websites require certain things in their name. Some have length requirements, some have language filters, some have characters that can't be used. I would check the name requirements. It would probably tell you if you've been banned.

Well http:// stands for hyper text transfer protocol its how your browser knows what a website says. Its basically a set of instructions on how to 'talk' to a website. You also see ftp:// file transfer protocol among others. \n\nThe www (world wide web) is a hang back to the original internet where all websites where considered part of the WWW. Even though some sites don't use it say you put in http://yahoo.com the internet DNS (domain name service) still treats it as www.yahoo.com its kind of like a default. \n\nIf you look at yahoo answers its answers.yahoo.com you take off www and replace it with a subname "answers". This allows website designers to split a domain (that's the name a website calls itself) into parts. So say you could have answers.yahoo.com news.yahoo.com my.yahoo.com each are sub sections of yahoo.com. That is to say 'usually' each of those sub sections are at the same IP address.\n\nAn IP address is a number that's assigned to every computer that's on the internet. At the moment its in the form of 123.123.123.123 yahoos address is 68.142.226.54\n\nA DNS takes the yahoo.com bit and changes it into that number so your computer can find who your looking for. So basically the www bit is just saying a particular site is part of the world wide web. \n\nSorry I know my answers kind of complicated but I hope it will inspire you to ask more questions! Try the books Accidental Empires and A Brief History of the Future: the\nOrigins of the Internet. They are really great books not to difficult to understand and really quite funny in places. Check out the story about Bill Gates and the Ice cream coupon!\n\n"www.answers.yahoo.com doesn't work"\nNo it won't answers. news. etc are subdomains that are created by yahoo on their server to split its main server into parts for different jobs. When you tell your browser to goto yahoo.com its default attempt (because you haven't given a subdomain) is www.yahoo.com. Your browser has to have a default to try which is www. So if you don't specify a subdomain like answers your browser has to look some where so it tries subdomain www of domain yahoo.com ie www.yahoo.com. If you gave the browser a subdomain say answers.yahoo.com your browser knows which subdomain you want so goes stright their. So www is a default subdomain when none is specified by you. www.answers.yahoo.com won't work because the subdomain www.answers doesn't exist because yahoo hasn't created it.

To most browers none. \n\nThe exact syntax should be http://www.yahoo.com \n\nhttp is the protocol. It can be other things like ftp or https. Whatever it is will determine what port and protocol the browser will use to talk to that site. \n\nwww means the top domain of that site. Instead of www you might use profiles.yahoo.com/somebody for example. The browser will assume you mean www if you do not specifify. So if you mean to go t a sub domain like profiles.yahoo.com and do not provide the that sub domain you will get the www or top domain instead. \n\nThe next part is the domain. www.php.com and www.php.net are entirely different web sites. www.yahoo.com and www.yahoo.com.au are slightly different. \n\nHowever most browsers will fill out portions of a URL to make it correct as a way of helping you or as a shortcut. If you use firefox and you visit www.yahoo.com on a frequent basis all you have to type is yah and hit the tab key and your on your way.

It's up to the webmaster. The domain name (like yahoo.com or netscape.net) is the 'root' of the website; any URL with something that appears before the domain name is subsidiary to the domain name. Since domain names can be used for a variety of purposes (such as mail, file transfer, etc.) www. is generally used to denote a >>web page<< that is part of the domain... but it's not a requirement, as any browser can easily determine whether what it's reading is a web page or not, no matter what it's named.
