URL - Uniform Resource Locator
A URL (Uniform Resource Locator) is an address that supports a hyperlink. The user needn't see this, only the text/image representation on screen. Think of it as a networked extension of the standard filename concept: not only can you point to a file in a directory, but that file and that directory can exist on any machine on the network, can be served via any of several different methods, and might not even be something as simple as a file: URLs can also point to queries, documents stored deep within databases, the results of a finger or archie command, or whatever. It is possible to represent any file or service on the Internet with a URL. Every resource available on the Web -- HTML document, image, video clip, program, etc. -- has an address that may be encoded by a Uniform Resource Locator, or "URL". URLs typically consist of three pieces:
The naming scheme of the mechanism used to access the resource.
The name of the machine hosting the resource.
The name of the resource itself, given as a path.
An example:
http://WWW.Stars.com/index.html
The initial portion of the URL (before the two slashes) specifies the method of access. This can be http, ftp, file, gopher, news, telnet, ...
The second is normally the address of the machine where the data or service is situated.
Additional portions may define the names of files, the port to link to, or the document to search for in a database.
Most Web browsers permit the user to enter a URL to link to that document or service. When choosing hypertext in an HTML document, the user is really sending a request to open a URL. Hyperlinks can be made not only to other media, but also to other network services. Web browsers are not simply Web clients, but are also full-featured FTP, Gopher, and telnet clients

TAKEN FROM ANSWERS.COM>>>>
URL
(Uniform Resource Locator) The address that defines the route to a file on an Internet server (Web server, FTP server, mail server, etc.). URLs are typed into a Web browser to access Web pages and files, and URLs are embedded within the pages themselves as hypertext links. The URL contains the protocol prefix, port number, domain name, subdirectory names and file name. If a port number is not stated in the address, port 80 is used as the default for HTTP traffic.
