How Do URLs Work?
Ғылым және технология
You might look at URLs nearly every day, but what do all the parts of a Web address actually do?

Im kinda disappointed that: 1: no mention of https which is important. (in my opinion) 2: no mention of subdomains

This video is about explaining different parts of a URL, not a full enumeration of possible web protocols. Saying that https should be in the video is like saying that they should have included every single top-level domain in the part about TLDs.

no DNS explanation (could be very short in two sentences) ist more kind of thing I miss (and that he says that top level domains help with the route, which is BS, they only help in searching up domains in the DNS list. The route is done purely on IP)

Ok sure maybe https is not nessecary in this video. But not having subdomains is still quite a fail considering they are quite an important part of an url
1:55 --> Kingdom of Belgium. Yes, we do exist.
Honestly, that was very helpful, thanks Jon, Luke, and the rest of the LTT staff!

"Are Socks And Sandals Cool?" - Linus 2017
From this Greek software engineer's standpoint, it would be fun to make a video about how every browser decides to eff up your query string when you try to send unicode in.
I like this channel because it touches important technical things and explains in a simple way.
you should make videos more often, i really enjoy your work, i like the way you explain. Thank you :)
Wow, I do networking for a living and didn't know about the language conversion bits, very interesting and informative.
3:11, I thought Luke skillfully bent his knees to make room for the information behind him. Turns out to be seamless smooth camera aciton
It's so cool to see Luke growing into his own. i know we've seen this for a while, but this video is an easy choice as it's his wheelhouse now. Just like Linus growing out of NCIX, Luke is the face of Float Plane (or whatever it is, i am not a member, was on vessel, be back soon to the early crowd, R.I.P.) and that's just cool to see. Have fun, get good, party.
If only you posted this before my computer science exam
He's back! That was one long barber visit
Fantastic explanation!
very useful and well presented ..thanx
Man great videos guys!
"Are socks and sandals cool" lol Linus XD
Thank you Luke very infomative
knew most of it, still wanted to hear luke explaining 😁
I just clicked on another Tech Quickie video and the Tunnel-bear add was seamlessly continued playing.... 🤯
I just got my first computer and my first internet connection, this is the first video im watching. TOTALLY NOT LYING
Great video. Very well explained. I am trying to help some people understand the difference between local links (a link from one local document; pdf, word doc, html page to another local document) and links to items on the web. So they understand the significance of choosing 'relative files paths' over 'absolute file paths' to make the set of files more portable across different machines. Do you have any videos that can help my buddies 'grok' this concept? Please share as a reply.
like the way u present the info
btw the "press allow to continue" sites can be skipped by looking at the url and decoding another url.
This was the coolest techquicky yet!!! I love it Jon, John, Jahn, however the hell your name is spelled :p
I really needed this for a project I am working on 😀

Eli's vids got me half of my college experience loool eli is the man
hey i was curious if you could do a video on the order numbers, if its relevant.
This was a really good video
need to watch it again later
can u tell me something ? some one send me link to open but when i read all that long link there is no way to go step by step, so is that something bad if they dont have one web site witch i can go step by step ??
Well the /../path following the domain is sorta right. Depending on how you have your website set up, each of the strings in between the slashes are stored as variables. Which you then query a database to load the correct body content from the database (if coded in PHP). So in old-school html sites, yeah it does represent a file tree, but not so much any more.
Hey remember when Luke was Slick. we need to bring Slick back #BringSlickBack
A few notes, the */* often don't indicate folders since the path is resolved by a custom URL config (often via a framework, like Django, ExpressJS, Ruby on Rails etc). Then *?* and *&* part is also not fully complete. While it is true that it can be used to share data between views, it can't be used for sensitive data, and a lot of a data is stored in cookies, which are automatically send with every request. To send sensitive data, one would use a POST request, over HTTPS . The device name, or browser version is almost never send within a URL, but is read from the User-Agent Header.
I have found this video by pure accident in January of 2022. It has boggled my mind.
very clear . thank you
This raises more questions than it answered
The data following the ? And separated by & are parameters or variables passed to the server. The server then uses those variables to determine what needs to be done. Sometimes a query is performed on the database, but not always. Each variable is not a query
Nice upload, ty
good explanation!
How do dynamic shadows work?
Those fragments are usually called Anchors, and they are called to by assigning an ID to an anchor, and then calling it back by using the hashtag followed by the ID
Very informative.
I'd like to point out that the "Query" section of a URL will most likely never contain browsertype or referer as those are sent by the browser itself. the Query section is meant for site specific arguments that the site is moving from page to page on your side. For example an insecure input field or the current forum page you're viewing.
Where'd you get your hair cut?
Luke looks very professional in that shirt
Does it matter if you use a capital letter instead of a lower case, or vice-versa?
2:40 the ? doesn't mean a query, it's only a variable submitted by the user, wich is typically used as a query, but not necessary
I thought you guys were going to talk about how are URLs assigned to each website. Are all URLs stored in a server linking them with their respective IPs? Do the ISPs store them? Or they are spread across different servers worldwide and each time you type one your PC looks for the IP the URL refer to in every server that stored URLs?
Great vid
All I really want is a chrome extension that will make the omnibox that shows the url to simply show the domain name and be centered. Is that too much to ask for?
does hard drives are dead..? my disk is not working when i try to install os it says it cut be install Shreya it fails. how do i fix that
what is [cc] in subs that we see? like English[cc] in youtube or amazon prime videos.
Why do some website only work if you add the "www." to the url?
Awesome video
Sir when using VPN if you make a call the recipient will notice your in your original country or where the VPN is registered?
good work
3:06 Btw pound sign is £, # is hash :)
what technology are used to make anime or cartoons?
Do people actually call my country 'the Kindom of Belgium'?? LOL never heard that before

mailto: schemes isn't an URL, it is an URN. URL and URN are the subsets of URI.
Nice hair style Luke
Forward slashes (/) are for external paths while back slashes (\) are for local paths.
@asyereal

Yes. but I think it's Windows specific cuz in Linux and MacOS, they use forward slash (/) for directory paths. And we navigate local files with file://home/username/file.html
The slashes don't always indicate subfolders. Often it's just shadowfolders that make it look like there is a folder while it's just a variable.
Greetings I dont know about URL but I would like to ask, is it possible to run an online store without a verified and unclaimed URL. I ask this because Google did allow me to verify my URL. What should I do?
You forgot to say about ASCII and UTF-8 that stands behind those %** things (which are hexadecimal, btw). And ? is in URL for browser so he can understand that there is next symbol ready to be read.
Everythig after the top domain is just text and the server (or some js code) then desides what to do with it. For exmple: Not all KZread videos are in the /watch folder on the youtube servers.
How do a pc and the internet work? Magic.

if he lost a little bit of weight he could get a job as a model
2:18 Not necessarily. Lots of websites use MVC for this, and it usually has nothing to do with directories.
I had an oral IT exam 2 days ago, and URLs are EXACTLY what they asked from me. I told some of this stuff, but GOD, had this video been uploaded 3 days ago, would have I gotten like 10-15 more points.. (out of 30). :D Edit: Nvm I got 29/30.
How does the browser know where the server is located just from the URL?

JochCool IP address via DNS query through your router's DNS provider, whoever you set that to.
who else was expecting an analysis on the robot cop from Futurama 😂?
WOW, I CAN SEE CY AT 1:49 I FEEL ACKNOWLEDGED lol
yea its always great when i have to include a link that has greek words in it and ends up covering 3-4 lines filled with percent symbols and numbers. My emails look like spam mail if i have to include more than one link
Sick bro
Very cool
A domain route (anything after the domain, such as /login) does not always work as a sub folder manner such as for an FTP server. If you were to type /profiles/25 as a domain route for example you would not be browsing a folder called profiles and the file name of 25. Instead you would have routing on your app, this route would then pick up when a specified route has been used. Using the number as a wildcard which would make a query to get an object back from a DB which the ID of 25 for example. Once the data has been retrieved it would be then returned to the view (page) and displayed to the user. So much detail missed which confuses everyone who has no idea how the internet works
or a video about all about overclocking ,safe overcloking safety, extreme usage
On a random note, I hate when site uses $_GET to load a required/include page, so the user never leaves index.php, or even worse, when it's just a huge document with if else statements for the different "pages"
Lol when you make a mistake in pointing and have to improvise.
its nice to see all this nub stuff being basic explained. this would have helped years ago when i was bursting my head to understand needlessly complicated giant books with extra fancy words where i had to look up like 5 words before i could move on to the next sentence.
2:10 is a little misleading. The majority of modern frameworks use mod rewrite in .htaccess to alter the URL rather than having the folder path.
where has he gone?
Are .ai, .fit also TLDs?
0:10 Nice Recovery. Totally don't need to mirror the image or just reshoot those 10 seconds or anything.
3:10 YOOO THATS MY CPU
Why do some websites in url are like www and some are not and there are other names, can someone explain to me why pleaseee? (i know what dns, https, http is and from this video now i know what .com and .org means)

I know this is a few months old but it's listed as a pound sign in the Oxford English Dictionary. I'm pretty sure the proper term for it is the octothorpe though.
I'll have you know it is neither a pound or hash sign, it is the great and mighty Octothorpe!

Well if only this was made before the 7th June cause that's when my computing exam was and there was a question bout urls.

Could you make a video about how the .ninja and .meme domains work and how companies can create them?
You guys use IRC still? Haven't you heard of Slack?
