Excerpt
Introduction: HTTP/1.0 [3] and HTTP/1.1 [11] define protocol constructs (respectively, the HTTP-header and message-header BNF rules) that are used as message headers. These specifications also define a number of HTTP headers themselves, and they provide for extension through the use of new field-names.
