Hi Jacque. In all IP communications, not only is the address the IP part, but there is also a port number associated with it. You don’t often see it because this information is added on later using the default port for whatever protocol. For instance, port 80 is the HTTP port. 21 and 22 is FTP. 465 is SSL and so forth.
Now if you were to use another port, 81 for HTTP for example, you would have to explicitly put that in the URL: http://www.slylabs.com:81/support (That’s not a real URL btw so don’t click it.) There are a maximum number of usable ports, 65535 to be exact. The URL you have is obviously higher than that and BTW has a LETTER I in it! Yeah, that URL is bogus.

What does the second port number mean, if that's what it is? -- Jacqueline Landman Gay _______________________________________________ use-livecode mailing list use-livecode@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-livecode
