How does an internet webpage work and get the right content to be displayed?

Question

Accepted Answer

An internet webpage works by sending a request to a server, which then processes the request and sends back the necessary content to be displayed.

When a user enters a URL in a web browser, the browser sends a request to a server hosting the webpage.
The server processes the request, retrieves the necessary files (HTML, CSS, JavaScript, images, etc.), and sends them back to the browser.
The browser then renders the content received from the server and displays it to the user.
Webpages can also dynamically fetch content from databases or APIs to display updated information.
Examples include loading news articles, social media feeds, or search results on a webpage.
