i didn't know this. so, an URL is of the form:
URL = user:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
where lowercase "url" is what i used to think of as being an url. and the "user:password@" portion is optional.
in Pseudo-BNF a URL spec looks something like
<protocol>://[<username>[:<password>[EMAIL PROTECTED]<server>[:<port>]/ [<pathelement>{/<pathelement>}][?<argument>[=value]{&<argment>[=value]}]
and everthing after the server/port is called a URI (Uniform Resource Indicator? I think) which iteslf can be broken down into a "PATH" and a "QUERY_STRING" (a la cgi environment variables.)
I used to work for a company that made web tracking software, so I got to know the URL spec pretty well.
