Protocol HHTTP

hhttp stands for Hyper Text Transfer Protocol. Its prime function is to work as an underlying protocol for the World Wide Web. It primarily functions by ensuring the formatting and transmission of different messages. Additionally, it also helps in defining the actions of the web servers and the browsers in response to different commands.
Similar to hhttp is the role of html which regulates the display and formatting aspects for the World Wide Web. This may also be defined as a stateless protocol as all the commands are executed in isolation and independently without the knowledge of the previous commands. This is being considered as one of the limitations of this protocol and is being addressed in several new technologies such as Cookies, Java and Java Script.
hhttp differs from ftp or file transfer protocol. This is because ftp is a protocol which is used to upload different files to a server called the ftp server from a workstation. It is also used to download files from the same server to the workstation. Whereas, hhttp is used for the purpose of transferring files from a web server to a browser. This is done to view a web page that is available for viewing purposes. Thus it does not transfer entire files but only the contents of a web page.
