This document has been introduced in order to let you find documents that
|
|
specify standards used by curl, software that extends curl and web pages with
|
|
"competing" utilities.
|
|
|
|
Standards
|
|
|
|
RFC 959 - Defines how FTP works
|
|
RFC 1738 - Uniform Resource Locators
|
|
RFC 1777 - defines the LDAP protocol
|
|
RFC 1808 - Relative Uniform Resource Locators
|
|
RFC 1867 - Form-based File Upload in HTML
|
|
|
|
RFC 1950 - ZLIB Compressed Data Format Specification

RFC 2045-2049 - Everything you need to know about MIME! (needed for form
|
|
based upload)
|
|
RFC 2068 - HTTP 1.1 (obsoleted by RFC 2616)
|
|
RFC 2109 - HTTP State Management Mechanism (cookie stuff)
|
|
- Also, read Netscape's specification at

|
RFC 2183 - "The Content-Disposition Header Field"
|

Use this as an addition to the 1867
|
|
RFC 2396 - "Uniform Resource Identifiers: Generic Syntax and Semantics"

|
|
in this list.

This should be considered when introducing IPv6 awareness.
