Then the web came along, and Internet use spread to the home and all across the world. See, in plain terms, a web server broadcasts HTML to all connected clients on port 80, so port 80 is the “HTTP port.” HTTP is the protocol, or set of standards for port 80 and its software. The client software is your browser, (ie probably
Internet Explorer but hopefully Firefox), and the server is something like Apache or IIS(uug). This relates to hacking, as you will see later, but first you need to know more about HTTP. (the spaces before the are put in so this isnt thought of as HTML)

If Apache is serving that, and Firefox picks it up, It will replace the , the , etc. They “close” the tag. Tag is a term for anything in s, and they must be opened (ie introduced) and closed (ie ). If you want to learn HTML tagging, just head over to our close friend Google and do a search.
Since you haven’t gotten to the programming section, and currently I have not even wrote it, I will show you a web server example in the simplest form I can think of that will work on any OS you are currently using.
