Whenever you want to see a resource from a web server you send a request, this request contains information that lets the server know what it can and cant send you(encoding, supported documents, languages etc) and where to send it .

Thats a PHP script, when a user requests the script from the server it uses some of that info and returns it in an image.

kind of off topic here, but DOT, you're using videotron? Are you in the same province I am?

and I always get pretty spooked when my ISP info gets plastered back to my face when surfing the net, especially on those god forsaken popups...
