I have been looking for tutorials that teach programming applications that can communicate over the internet but I don't really know what to search for. I tried socket programming and things like that but didn't come up with anything useful. I was hoping someone could point me in the right direction.
Thanks.
Either sockets or CGI is what you are looking for. C++ isn't good for CGI and sockets at such a low level are nothing short of a nightmare. What exactly do you want to do?

You would probably be better off with another language, Java perhaps. Otherwise, search the net for source code to server applications in C++ and you'll get the basic idea of what is going on.

If using WIN32 could try the Internet functions from Wininet.lib
