Q. Discuss the basic working model of HTTP.

Answer =

The basic working model of HTTP are:-

(i) For web communications, the request message (HTTP request), is sent to an HTTP server in the form of URLs (Uniform Resource Locators) by the HTTP client.

(ii) The HTTP server receives the HTTP request, fetches the information as per the request and sends it to the HTTP client. This is called the response message from HTTP server.

(iii) The HTTP client (the browser) receives the response message, interprets the message and displays the contents of the message on the browser's window (which could be either the website or an error message if such URL does not exist).
