Hi Guys,
I need to understand how does the browser exactly works in details and its
protocol.... For example I realized that the text request go through a
different layer of TCP than when the browser actually request for the
picture/image part of the browser
e.g. I have two different type of TCP layer on my computer one is MSAFD and
the other is RSVP TCP service provider... when I type http://192.168.0.1 in
my browser the first GET request goes through the MSAFD TCP and the 2nd get
request for image goes through the RSVP TCP??? so these are the kind of
things I like to understand...
Also when I first run the browser I see it send request through the network
I think sort of DNS finding so I like to understand these details to be able
to develop my layer to interface with all these request... where can I find
this information? do you know about it? I saw on my Ethereal "Microsoft
Browser Protocol" and I think that's what I need but I searched the web and
couldn't find much??? is this the protocol deciding upon all the
transactions between the browser and OS??

I would greatly appreciate all the feedbacks and advise you can provide me
with...

thank you all in advice.

Microsoft Browser protocol and the working of Browser are two different
things.
If you want to know what happens when you request a web page, you need to
know
HTTP protocol. Google is your friend.
 
no, I think I need to underestand the microsoft browser protocol...
I think I know HTTP.... protocol what I need to underestand that as an
application (IE) how interacts with the lower layer components... as far as
HTTP concerns it is just interact with the browser and the winsock for the
TCP calls and that's it.... but I need to underestand how does the IE
interacts...

thank you
