HTTP Get Content Type

Question

I have a program that needs to interact with a web server and retrieve a file containing structured data using http and cgi. I have a couple of questions:

• Cgi script on the server need to specify the body on the right? What should be the type of content?
• Should I use POST or GET?
• Can someone tell me a good resource for reading HTTP?

Answer 1

• The type of content specified by the server will depend on what data types you plan to return. As Jim said, if it's JSON, you can use "application / json". The obvious payload for the request will be any data that you send to the client.
