Overview

When we talk about the World Wide Web (WWW) then we should also be talking about the Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP). There would be simply no WWW without HTTP. I have only two other articles here because this protocol is not overly complicated and most importantly we--as developers, designers and users--under any normal circumstances don't have to care about it.

Nevertheless, sometimes people are just so darn curious and they have questions. Those two documents is how I usually tell the story about HTTP.

Standards Documentation

First of some links to other sources. Most importantly the first one which is the official documentation by W3 Consortium.

W3C - Complete Protocol Overview

Wikipedia - English - Deutsch - Espanol - Francais - Italiano -

Articles

Following are the links to these two articles:

  • http:// in a nutshell
  • http:// for dummies

Again, it is not much because there is not really a lot you have to know about HTTP. It is certainly a good thing to know it exists and maybe why it exists but we normally don't have to worry about it.
