Hi,
The one stop place for the HTTP protocol :
http://www.w3c.org
For an implementation of the HTTP protocol in a browser check out
http://www.mozilla.org
The source code provided here was the basis on which the Netscape browser was written.
For an implementation of the HTTP protocal in a Web Server check out
http://www.apache.org
This is the free web server ( with source code ) and in todays market more than 50% of the top 100 web servers are using Apache. A Web Server to reckon with. Moreover you have a Java Version of the Webserver shipped now.
These links are the definitive and have the most authoritative contents. If these seem time consuming check some other resources.

if you own MS VC++ 6.0 the "Visual C programmer's Guide" has a chapter called "Internet Topics" that looks like a good intro to me.
