Now I am using Dynamic DNS (www.dyndns.org) because of dynamic IP, and my ISP has blocked the port 80.  My Zope default is port 8080.  If people visit my web site,  is it compulsory to type ":8080" after my domain name?  Is there any way that can visit my site without mentioning port 8080?Sincerly,Terence

No, if your provider blocks port 80 you won't be able to get it access
like you.dyndns.org. If you have a friend which makes a url rewrite
rule on his server you might get your-ip.your-friend.org get mapped to
you.dyndns.org:8080.

http://blu.org is just short for http://blu.org:80 since http defaults
to port 80
