I need to create URL like this:
htp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/World_of_Warcraft:_Wrath_of_the_Lich_King

When I create this kind of filename, program say - your file name
incorrect. I need to create simple filename with this symbol   :

You cannot  use such characters for any file name in Windows.

On a website urls can get built in different ways. In a basic simple
website they contain the actual file name in which the page content is
stored. In a complex website that uses databases and serevr-side
scripting they are  genarated from the application. A url may be
rewritten from parameters according to rules of the application. The
actual script that drives the applicaiton probably is called index.php
and takes a bunch of parameters, but it all gets rewritten to "nice"
urls.

The real internal url of htp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/World_of_Warcraft:_Wrath_of_the_Lich_King
may be somehting like:
htp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/index.php?c=World_of_Warcraft&p=Wrath_of_the_Li ch_King
and will get rewritten to what you have.

No page is stored as a file with that name at all. pages are generated
dynamically from a database of content.

The : is a reserved character in the world of the internet.  It is
used to denote the the TCP/IP port that should be used.

mydomain.com/file:32 tells the browser to use port 32.

Therefore, you cannot use : in a file name as it will "confuse" the
browser as it will expect that the characters after it to be port
number.

That is only true when it's immediately after the domain tld as in
http://www.example.com:80/ which means port 80 on the domain www.example.com
.
It doesn't apply to the uri.

Thank very much. I think this character is to nice to reserve it, they
did wrong thing))).

I wanted to use this kind of urls on my site, pictures.uz
http://pictures.uz/Picture_number:127
It would look awesome!

If they has reserved it for such serious things like to tell to the
browser which port to use, I have to find another one. Something like
it. http://newyork.newyork.kz/Empire_State_Building_picture`55
I feel underscores looks much more cool than minuses)))
There are demo page, site is under construction (you should use FF to
see drop-down menus)

I am using php activation in html right now.
(    "ForceType application/x-httpd-php"   in .htaccess    )
There are very cool html code, we able to use 'position: absolute'
still (menu and nav is replaced).
I think this kind of code structure is VeRy google-friendful. Header
is on the second line after <body>, amazing?
So, we've got 312 (three hundred) keywords of newyork, and 215 words
of pictures, nice?
(and I have not counted up both megatags and bookmarklets yet) just
urls and alt attributes.

By the way, someone can talk to me, how google trends works?
gTrends say 1st position websites about NY has just 4,000-40,000
clicks per day (on google.com).
Google search stats:
new york pictures        402,000,000 results
pictures of new york    387,000,000 results
Where is this billion)))

example: http://trends.google.com/websites?q=nynyhotelcasino.com&geo=all&date=all
