Well, as afaik......the back slashes ( \ ) won't work to reach the site. I remember once when I did a website using HTML tags, all my links worked only on my computer because the site was stored on it and therefore the back slash coding could be used. But since the website you're trying to reach isn't stored on your computer, the correct coding should have forward slashes ( / ).
