I think maybe you should be a bit more specific in what you want. 
If you really want "specific" then go read the source code for some
opensource browser and see what it does. But I suspect tht is not what
you want. 
If what you want is to know how DNS works, that is a different question. 
The browser reads the stuff you typed in. If it looks like a network
address, it reads /etc/resolv.conf, find what the the first server
listed there is, and sends a packet to the dns port of that address which contins the 
name. The dns server sends back, if it can, an IP address assocated with
that address. Then the broser sends a packet to the http port of that
address. 

Is that specific enough? If not tell us what you want.

This sound suspiciously like you're asking an interview question.

Please start with what you think happens, and then we'll help you fill 
in the missing pieces.
