Back in the days when info.cern.ch was the place to get definitive information about the Web, it had one major page which described the Web as basically HTML + HTTP, and another which described the Web as "the universe of network-accessible information". I don't think the precise meaning of the term has become any clearer since then. Cheers, Andrew. -- Andrew McRae <andrew_mcrae@harvard.edu>
