This module keeps a list of valid methods to be performed on a
request object, for example GET, HEAD,
PUT, POST, DELETE, etc. You can assign which method
to be performed on the request object directly or
you can go through the Access module for higher
level functions.

This module is implemented by HTMethod.c, and it
is a part of the  W3C Sample Code
Library.
