In computing, POST is a request method supported by HTTP used by the World Wide Web. By design, the POST request method requests that a web server accepts the data enclosed in the body of the request message, most likely for storing it. [1] It is often used when uploading a file or when submitting a completed web form.
It is a means for the browser to tell the server and any intermediate caches that it wants a fresh version of the resource. The Pragma: no-cache header field, defined in the HTTP/1.0 spec, has the same purpose. It, however, is only defined for the request header. Its meaning in a response header is not specified. [77]

HTTP compression is a capability that can be built into web servers and web clients to improve transfer speed and bandwidth utilization. [1]HTTP data is compressed before it is sent from the server: compliant browsers will announce what methods are supported to the server before downloading the correct format; browsers that do not support compliant compression method will download uncompressed ...
The range header is used by HTTP clients to enable resuming of interrupted downloads, or split a download into multiple simultaneous streams. 207 Multi-Status (WebDAV; RFC 4918) The message body that follows is by default an XML message and can contain a number of separate response codes, depending on how many sub-requests were made.

The Content Security Policy HTTP Header lets web sites tell web browsers which domain scripts may be included from. An effort was undertaken around 2011 to define a safer strict subset definition for JSONP [1] that browsers would be able to enforce on script requests with a specific MIME type such as "application/json-p". If the response did ...
For version 1.1 of the HTTP protocol, the chunked transfer mechanism is considered to be always and anyway acceptable, even if not listed in the TE (transfer encoding) request header field, and when used with other transfer mechanisms, should always be applied last to the transferred data and never more than one time.
