URL?

A URL is what you type into the address entry in a web browser

to be more accurate

A URL (Uniform Resource Locator, previously Universal Resource  
Locator) - usually pronounced by sounding out each letter but, in  
some quarters, pronounced "Earl" - is the unique address for a file  
that is accessible on the Internet. A common way to get to a Web site  
is to enter the URL of its home page file in your Web browser's  
address line. However, any file within that Web site can also be  
specified with a URL. Such a file might be any Web (HTML) page other  
than the home page, an image file, or a program such as a common  
gateway interface application or Java applet. The URL contains the  
name of the protocol to be used to access the file resource, a domain  
name that identifies a specific computer on the Internet, and a  
pathname, a hierarchical description that specifies the location of a  
file in that computer.
On the Web (which uses the Hypertext Transfer Protocol, or HTTP), an  
example of a URL is:

        http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2396.txt
which specifies the use of a HTTP (Web browser) application, a unique  
computer named www.ietf.org, and the location of a text file or page  
to be accessed on that computer whose pathname is /rfc/rfc2396.txt.
A URL for a particular image on a Web site might look like this:
       http://searchnetworking.techtarget.com/WhatIs/images/coaxla.gif
A URL for a file meant to be downloaded using the File Transfer  
Protocol (FTP) would require that the "ftp" protocol be specified  
like this hypothetical URL:

      ftp://www.somecompany.com/whitepapers/widgets.ps
A URL is a type of URI (Uniform Resource Identifier, formerly called  
Universal Resource Identifier.)
