Re: httpd headers etc

>Can someone recommend a readable article/tutorial which covers the ground to >a reasonable depth? Basically, every HTTP interchange consists of: Browser sends headers+content Server returns headers+content headers+content are separated by a single blank line. Most browsers correctly interpret some "core" headers like Location: and Date: and so forth. All browsers have all sorts of funky non-standard headers their evil* developers added and you can use, only it won't work right on the other browsers, so why bother? Which headers do what to which browser is an endless topic, unless you focus on the ones that work reliably for all browsers, in which case the list gets pretty short fast. :-) Honestly, though, after that, there just isn't that much to know... Any particular headers you are interested in, or specific goals you want to achieve that might involve headers? * Actually the evil part is the browsers' developers adding headers, and then not honoring the other browsers' developers' additional headers, but that's a bit too complex to squeeze into the other sentence. -- Like Music? http://l-i-e.com/artists.htm
