Learning Point: Deconstructing the URL

If you access a web page over the Internet, you might use a domain name or an IP address like:

http://www.macromedia.com/

http://216.104.212.88/

In this case, the domain name and the IP address are equivalent. IP addresses are normally not publicized, however,

because they might change and are more difficult to remember than domain names. (Note that to be technically accurate,

macromedia.com is the domain name, while www is the host name.)

When you’re working locally on your own computer, 127.0.0.1 is the IP address that refers to the local computer. The

term localhost is the equivalent host name.

:8500 refers to the port that is used for browsing ColdFusion MX 7 web pages when you choose to install the built-in web

server. By default, most websites use port 80 (http://www.macromedia.com:80), but since this is the default, it is not

necessary to explicitly declare the port. When you are using a ColdFusion local server, however, the built-in web server,

on port 8500, is used to help ensure that the ColdFusion development environment does not conflict with other web

configurations that are installed on your computer. Therefore, you must specify the port in the URL when you request

pages through the built-in web server.

You set this path in Dreamweaver MX 2004 so that when you choose to browse the page from within Dreamweaver, it

opens the file appropriately in the browser.
