The book describes the way HTTP works. You'll find extensive listings for headers--which covers cache control directives and such like--server response codes, client methods, referring documents, media types, cookies and similar arcana. It's a book for those who need to talk to Web servers, not just get pages from them. It describes the mechanics of get and post, how to understand server responses and troubleshoot problems.
Perhaps the most useful aspect of the HTTP Pocket Reference are the HTTP transaction dumps which show the kind of information returned, its format and the limits on what you can and can't discover. The amount of HTTP information available is an eye opener. There's nothing in the HTTP Pocket Reference you can't find in the RFCs and other--thicker--books, but here it's presented for those on the front line who just want it to work--right now. --Steve Patient
