Definition: The term "path_info" refers to a piece of information provided by the URL handling in HTTP (HTTP/1.1) or HTTPS protocols, which describes the location of a webpage on a server. For example, if you're accessing a website like google.com and are using the URL: ``` http://www.google.com/path/to/some/website/ ``` The information provided by "path_info" includes: - The domain (e.g., www.google.com) - Path segments (e.g., to/some/website) - Query parameters - Parameters required for authentication Understanding this helps in navigating web pages more efficiently and securely.
