ABOUT httpd4Mac
'httpd4Mac' is an fba (Faceless Background Application) that implements a minimal http server.
It currently supports the GET and HEAD methods, with full or simple requests. It ignores 'Accept' fields from the client. NB The http spec does not allow such a thing as a simple HEAD request. The only simple method is GET. But seeing as the CERN server accepts it (and the guy who invented WWW wrote that program) I thought I should also.
WHAT DOES THAT MEAN ?
That means it should work as a fairly straightforward WWW server. You should be able to write pages with images, and have separate image, sound and movie files. What it does not (yet) support are clickable images or forms and other interactive pages. I may write the code to support this later but it is not planned at the moment. I have tried using MacWeb and X-Mosaic and X-Netscape to retreive pages and they appear to work OK.
A Faceless-Background-App (FBA or Background-Only-App (BOA) as the name suggests runs in the background. When you launch it you will see it go grey, but it will not appear to have run. No menu will appear, nor will any windows. It will not appear in the application menu either. This is perfectly normal, but unless you set the prefs file to notify you about major events, you will not know if it is running or not.
