How POST Data is transferred from Web Browser to a Webserver.

Hi All,

I would like to unsderstand how POST data is sent from Web Browser to a Webserver esp when we try to upload a file to a server from HTML page.

And how webserver decodes that data.Actually, I like to understand the how Method="POST" works when we upload the file, and how webserver reads that file data.

Please, help me out if anyone knows in this regard. Also if someone knows any gud book or link which explains how general Webserver works please tell me.

Any information in this regard will be appreciated.

Thanks And Regards
Prakhar
