Browser and E-mail Basics
Web browser software & Web
pages
• The Web is a collection of files that reside on
computers, called Web servers.
– Web servers are connected to each other through the
Internet
• The software you use to connect your computer to
the Web server is your Web browser.
– Common Web browsers are Netscape Navigator and
Internet Explorer
– These browsers use a standard Graphical User Interface
design
Internet Explorer window
Computers and the Internet
Web addresses & 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.

Anchor tags are used to define
hyperlinks
• 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.

E-mail and E-mail software
• E-mail, or electronic mail, is an efficient way to
exchange messages with others on a network.
– This network may be small and self-contained, such as
within an office, or as large as the Internet.
• E-mail messages can go to only one recipient or to
dozens of recipients at once.
– When you send a message, it travels through the network
to an e-mail server.
– The e-mail server stores messages until the recipient(s)
request them.
How E-mail works
E-mail address components

network or you may create an e-mail account with a

– The name of the e-mail server
[email protected]
Send/receive e-mail
• To access your e-mail account you also need
an e-mail program, which is also called e-mail
client software.
– You use the e-mail program to open, print, delete,
reply to, forward, and save mail from your e-mail
server.
