- Among other things, a URL consists of a host and a path:
- 
- I was wondering (and couldn't find anything) if there's a name for the combination of **host** and **path**.
- Is there a name for these:
- * example.com/path/to/file
- * example.com/file.html
- * en.wikipedia.org/wiki/URL
- It would be useful to have a name for this combination of host and path since, for example, web browsers accept `example.com/path` in the URL bar and the connection works: The browser prepends the scheme and adds the port number.
- Another example of how common host + path is, which became apparent after posting this question: Codidact's Markdown processor will turn `example.com/path` into a link:
- ```
<a href="http://example.com/path/">example.com/path</a>- ```
