Client Server model

How a client side web browser interacts with a web server. See http://web-sniffer.net for an example of how http headers interact between the server and client. The Apache HTTP Server uses a listener process on port 80 (and ports 21, 443) to communicate with the client using the Transmission Control Protocol TCP/IP. The listener uses threads to fork child processes as client requests demand content from the web server.
