Is there a document that describes HTTP/0.9? What I am particularly interested in is the format of the request line (there were no headers, right?). RFC1945 documents HTTP/0.9. The format of the request is (was): Simple-Request = "GET" SP Request-URI CRLF and the response format was: Simple-Response = [ Entity-Body ] with no version numbers, no response status line, and no request or response headers. Based on my reading of some server source code, I believe that instead of a Content-Type response header, the older browsers apparently understood a tag like <PLAINTEXT> to indicate non-HTML responses. (Someone will no doubt correct me if I'm wrong.) -JeffReceived on Tuesday, 24 March 1998 10:43:46 UTC
