When we create any application in asp.net the main advantage is that it is platform independent i.e it can be accessed on any platform like linux operating system.
To pass a value from one page to another there are at least 12-13 events that gets called. so we need to understand on which event we have to code.. So before we should know about some terminologies..
Some Web Application Terminologies..
1) Website or Web Page is a means of displaying information on the internet. And this can be in text, audio, graphics, video formats. Webpages are stored in website so website is a collection of webpages.

cricket.com is domain name of the server. or you can type type ipaddress also instead of this. After domain name is the forward slash and after it here match is a folder in which score.aspx page is placed on the server.
8) HTML and DHTML : HTML is a language to design web pages. Html pages are dead pages they are not user interactive. To make web pages dynamic we uses DHTML. But DHTML has also got its limit to make a page dynamic.
9) Scripting is a means of embedding programming like code inside a webpage to make it more dynamic.
