What is HTTP (HyperText Transfer Protocol)

Short for HyperText Transfer Protocol, the underlying protocol  used by the World Wide Web. HTTP defines how messages are formatted and transmitted, and what actions Web servers and browsers  should take in response to various commands. For example, when you enter a URL in your browser, this actually sends an HTTP command to the Web server directing it to fetch and transmit the requested Web page.

The other main standard that controls how the World Wide Web works is HTML, which covers how Web pages are formatted and displayed.

HTTP is called a stateless protocol because each command is executed independently, without any knowledge of the commands that came before it.
