    Reading char* word by word

    Hi!
    Is there possibility to read char* table word by word in C (not C++)?
    I'm learning C by writing simple HTTP Server on BSD sockets (just for
    fun). And I want to read info from HTTP header received from client. I
    get char table, and I have to read some information.
    Can you help me?

    I can post the whole code of server when I finish.

      First you have to define what you want "word" to mean.
      For example, what is the second "word" in this line:
      <BODY TEXT="#000000" BGCOLOR="#FFFFF F">
      is it BODY, or TEXT, or TEXT="#000000", or something else?
      if you want it to be TEXT, what is the next "word"?
      Is it
      ="#000000"
      or
      #000000

          Second word is ' TEXT="#000000 '
          word separated by space or \n.

              You may look at the strtok function.

                      Actually, HTTP already defines it. If you want to parse the request
                      line, for example, it's easy, since the three items are separated by
                      spaces. HTTP defines it as

                      Request-Line = Method SP Request-URI SP HTTP-Version CRLF

                      (Where SP means a space character, and CRLF means the sequence "\r\n"
                      in C.) See RFC 2616 for further details.

                      With this in mind, you can either parse it with strtok(), or simply go
                      through the buffer examining character by character.
