System.Web Namespace

Enables ASP.NET to read the HTTP values sent by a client during a Web request.

The members of the HttpRequest class are exposed via the intrinsic Request object, which contains the information that the client browser passed to the server during an HTTP request.

For background information on what makes up an HTTP request message from a client to a server, see Section 5 Request in the Hypertext Transfer Protocol ( HTTP/1.1 ) documentation, available from the World Wide Web Consortium.
