What's the point of HTTP when you can transfer HTML files via FTP?
- mxuribe 10y agoLeveraging http for file transfer - via, say, web apps - avoids "civilian" (non-techie) users from having to install yet another tool (like ftp client)...though I do agree that browsers shouldn't replace every other tool under the sun. ;-)
