Last I checked FTP was part of the web?
- lallysingh 5y agoNope, literally not. It's an internet service, sure, but not the web.
- calvinmorrison 5y agoThe World Wide Web (WWW), commonly known as the Web, is an information system where documents and other web resources are identified by Uniform Resource Locators (URLs, such as https://example.com/ https://example.com/), which may be interlinked by hyperlinks, and are accessible over the Internet.
- mattl 5y agoThe web is HTML and HTTP. URLs to HTTP resources are links to things on the web, URLs to non-web resources are links to things on the Internet, maybe... maybe not, maybe links to other computers in your home, or files on disk.
- mattl 5y agoNope, FTP predates the web. A web page may link to an FTP server, of course.
