[Njtechdiv] Web Addresses?

[Eileen Scrivani]

Okay, This is so weird.

I just tried with both the https:// & http:// as well as with just the www. and all of them worked perfectly using Google Chrome. It also worked today without any of them. Very weird since yesterday it almost seemed like the site no longer existed. It was a site for a business so I have a hard time believing they would do any type of maintenance on a weekday or peek hours.

It was very strange. Thanks for reminding me to add the http since I usually always take the simplest route when typing in a url.

what happens if you try typing https:// or http:// before the www.

BTW, there are no dumb questions.

Hi All,
This might be a dumb question, but how does a person know when to type
the www before a web site’s address when using any browser. I ask
because yesterday I was trying a web site I had been to many times in
the past. Using Both Google Chrome & then I.E. when I typed it in with
the WWW.... it failed in both instances and came back with an error. On
my previous visits I’m 99% sure I had used the WWW. Finally I tried it
today without the WWW. and it worked fine.
It worries me that using the wrong protocol will land me someday in or
on a site that could cause huge problems. Just wondering if anyone knows.
Thanks.
Eileen
