Learn about sockets. It would be a piece of cake once you know them!!

If you manage to build a working browser just out of STDIO & CONIO, Einstein will walk this land once again.

FYI:
stdio = Standard Input Output
conio = Console Input Output
does that strike a bell?

As for a browser try looking into Indy. Winsock2.h will help you, but a browser without a GUI is pretty much like a weekend without a beer. So you'll have to look into GUI Forms as well.

Although if it's for learning purposes, I don't think a GUI would be a priority. If you use Linux, there is a default shell program installed that can browse web text-based. Just type w3m and you will see how it actually works.

Somehow, There is no way to use the libraries mentioned(conio or stdio) to create a
browser.

P.S. Conio.h is only for windows!
