Online HTTP response headers, HTTP request headers

HTTP request headers provide information about requests, responses or other sending entities. HTTP header information includes four parts: general header, request header, response header and entity header.

Each header field consists of a domain name, a colon (:) and a domain value.

Universal header: can be used in both requests and responses, and is associated with the transaction as a whole rather than a specific resource

Request headers: allow the client to pass information about itself and the desired response form

Response header: The server and the response that pass its own information

Entity header: defines the information of the resource being transferred, which can be used for both requests and responses.
