J12t, 1 year ago So I've been working with HTTP since early 1994. And I was today years old to learn that HTTP has "trailer fields". https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTTP/Headers/Trailer

gwachob, 1 year ago @J12t It is kinda hidden (and specific to) Chunked Encoding, which may be why I never really noticed it. Interesting though!

gwachob, 1 year ago @J12t Wait, what!?!? Is that actually supported by clients? It looks like a client has to explicitly express support for it. Looks like the browsers do. I guess this is one of those HTTP/1.1 features that I never ran across. Weird.

jamesmarshall, 1 year ago @J12t yes! They came in HTTP/1.1 with chunked encoding. I've never had to use them myself, and I don't think I've encountered them in the wild, but maybe others use them.
