Hi,
I disagree, and I refer you to my earlier message for a definition of
"Web application" and an example. The terms "Web site" and "Web
application" are both pretty indistinct. They're both such new terms
that (say, along with a word like "server") they've come to mean many
things. Personally, I tend to define a Web application as a Web client
that actually executes code that affects content (as opposed to
determining how content appears). That's a pretty lame definition, I
know. I'm open to better suggestions.

Some examples of Web applications (in addition to the one I already
cited) include:

http://www.zope.org/

Thanks. dB.
