Explain how a web application works.

A web application resides in the server and serves the clientís requests over internet. The client
access the web page using browser from his machine. When a client makes a request, it receives
the result in the form of HTML which are interpreted and displayed by the browser.        
A web application on the server side runs under the management of Microsoft Internet
Information Services (IIS). IIS passes the request received from client to the application. The
application returns the requested result in the form of HTML to IIS, which in turn, sends the result
to the client.
