: 1. RFC 822, section 3 says that it is case-insensitive. So both GET and
: get should work. Note however that HTTP is case-sensitive. So HTTP and
: http is not equal, hence the problem Roland has with his lower case test.
: That means that:
: get / HTTP/1.1 will work, but
: GET / http/1.1 will not work.

: 2. RFC 2616, section 4 says this:
:
: "Request (section 5) and Response (section 6) messages use the generic
: message format of RFC 822 [9] for transferring entities (the payload of
: the message). Both types of message consist of a start-line, zero or more
: header fields (also known as "headers"), an empty line (i.e., a line with
: nothing preceding the CRLF) indicating the end of the header fields, and
: possibly a message-body."
:
: So you need to press enter twice to get that extra CRLF to end the header
: fields section.

Thanks Kristofer. Very helpful. Looks like we were too lazy to look at the
RFCs.
