[users@httpd] A question about terms of the resource of HTTP request
Suppose there is an HTTP request to index.html, and there are four
entries for this request in the log file:
127.0.0.1 [23/May/2008:00:09:41] "GET /index.htmlHTTP/1.1" 200 "Mozilla/4.08"
127.0.0.1 [23/May/2008:00:09:41] "GET /style.css HTTP/1.1" 200 "Mozilla/4.08"
127.0.0.1 [23/May/2008:00:09:42] "GET /pic1.gif HTTP/1.1" 404 "Mozilla/4.08"
127.0.0.1 [23/May/2008:00:09:42] "GET /pic2.gif HTTP/1.1" 200 "Mozilla/4.08"
My question is what we call "index.html" and the other three resources
in this case. Is there any term like "base request" that refers to
"index.html" and "related requests" to the other three entries?
Thanks,
Paul

I don't think there are any "industry standard" terms for them, but in
regards to web traffic analysis programs, such as AWstats, the request
for "/index.html" would be called a "Page Request" and the other
elements would be called "Hits". A "Page Request" generally refers to
the file that provides the HTML content of the page. A "Hit" refers to
ANY file that is requested by the user (gif, png, css, swf, etc).
