 ## Examples
 
-- `developer.mozilla.org`
+- `https://developer.mozilla.org`
   - : The host is `developer.mozilla.org`. The port is not specified but will default to 443 if accessed via `https:`.
-- `localhost:8080`
+- `http://localhost:8080`
   - : The host is `localhost` and the port is `8080`. `localhost` is a special host name that the browser resolves to the local address `127.0.0.1`.
-- `postgres:admin123@db:5432`
+- `postgresql://postgres:admin123@db:5432`
   - : The host is `db`, and the port is `5432`. It also specifies a user `postgres` and its password `admin123`. This can be used to connect to a PostgreSQL database.
-- `cnn.example.com&[email protected]`
+- `mailto:[email protected]`
+  - : The host is `example.com`. The scheme is `mailto`, which is used to open the default email client to send an email to the user `user`.
+- `https://cnn.example.com&[email protected]`
   - : A misleading URL that looks like it's pointing to a trusted website. However, the host name is `10.0.0.1`, and the `cnn.example.com&story=breaking_news` part is the "user".

-`http://` is the [_scheme_](/en-US/docs/Web/URI/Schemes) of the URL, indicating which protocol the browser must use. Usually it is the HTTP protocol or its secured version, HTTPS. The Web requires one of these two, but browsers also know how to handle other protocols such as `mailto:` (to open a mail client) or `ftp:` to handle a file transfer, so don't be surprised if you see such protocols. Common schemes are:
-
-- [`blob`](/en-US/docs/Web/API/URL/createObjectURL_static)
-  - : Binary Large Object; a pointer to a large in-memory object
-- [`data`](/en-US/docs/Web/URI/Schemes/data)
-  - : Data directly embedded in the URL
-- `file`
-  - : Host-specific file names
-- `ftp`
-  - : {{Glossary("FTP","File Transfer Protocol")}}
-- `http/https`
-  - : [Hyper text transfer protocol (Secure)](/en-US/docs/Glossary/HTTP)
-- `javascript`
-  - : URL-embedded JavaScript code
-- `mailto`
-  - : Electronic mail address
-- [`resource`](/en-US/docs/Web/URI/Schemes/resource) {{Non-standard_inline}}
-  - : Firefox and Firefox browser extensions to load resources internally
-- `ssh`

The Web requires one of these two, but browsers also know how to handle other protocols such as `mailto:` (to open a mail client) or `ftp:` to handle a file transfer, so don't be surprised if you see such protocols. The [schemes](/en-US/docs/Web/URI/Schemes) reference provides a list of the most common schemes, and documentation for some of them.
 
 When using URLs in {{Glossary("HTML")}} content, you should generally only use a few of these URL schemes. When referring to subresources — that is, files that are being loaded as part of a larger document — you should only use the HTTP and HTTPS schemes. Increasingly, browsers are removing support for using FTP to load subresources, for security reasons.
