Inets is a container for Internet clients and servers. Currently, an HTTP server, a FTP client and an HTTP client has been incorporated into Inets. The HTTP server and client is HTTP 1.1 compliant as defined in RFC 2616.
The HTTP client is now documented http(3) and supported. It is loosely based on the earlier unsupported client developed by Johan Blom of Mobile Arts AB.
It is assumed that the reader is familiar with the Erlang programming language, concepts of OTP and has a basic understanding of the HTTP and FTP protocols.
