HTTP headers

Headers are name/value pairs that appears in both request and response messagges.The name of the heeader is separeted from the value
by a single colon.For Example..........................
this line in a request message...
User-Agent : Mozilla/4.0(compatiable;MSIE 6.0;Windows NT 5.1)
The purpose of this header is to supply the web server with information about the type of browser making the request.

http headerrs expose a great deal of information about your client as well as the server you are working,the application you are designing, as
well as the environmentt you are in....
the functionality for this is held in "Request.ServerVarriables",so you only need to access that.
