HTTP body data Information & HTTP body data Links at HealthHaven.com

HTTP Body Data is the data bytes transmitted in an HTTP transaction message immediately following the headers if there is any (in the case of HTTP/0.9 no headers are transmitted).

[edit] HTTP message

The request/response message consists of the following:

Request line, such as GET /logo.gif HTTP/1.1 or Status line, such as HTTP/1.1 200 OK,
Headers
An empty line
Optional HTTP message body data

The request/status line and headers must all end with <CR><LF> (that is, a carriage return followed by a line feed). The empty line must consist of only <CR><LF> and no other whitespace.

The "optional HTTP message body data" is what this article defines.

[edit] Sample
