HTTP request method

Depending on the HTTP standard, HTTP requests can use multiple request methods.

HTTP1.0 defines three request methods: Get, POST, and head methods.

HTTP1.1 has added five new request methods: Options, put, DELETE, TRACE, and CONNECT methods.

Serial Number	Method	Description
1	Get	Requests the specified page information and returns the entity body.
2	Head	Similar to a GET request, except that there is no specific content in the returned response to obtain the header
3	POST	Submits data to a specified resource for processing requests (such as submitting a form or uploading a file). The data is included in the request body. Post requests may result in the creation of new resources and/or modification of existing resources.
4	Put	Replaces the contents of the specified document with data that is transferred from the client to the server.
5	DELETE	Requests the server to delete the specified page.
6	CONNECT	The http/1.1 protocol is reserved for proxy servers that can change the connection to a pipe mode.
7	OPTIONS	Allows clients to view server performance.
8	TRACE	echo the request received by the server, primarily for testing or diagnostics.
