but what does it do? be more specific with your suggestions, For example, provide a list of fuctions with their possible arguments and return values, and a description of what the function does

if http and server then
  serverID = 'fgdffsdfdffedf'
  if not server.exists(server.encode(serverID))then
	server.create(sever.encode(serverID))
  end
  if server.connected(server.encode(serverID)) then
	print(server.get())
  end
  server.post( someRandomNumber )
end

How about we just let computers open raw TCP sockets. :P/>

In addition, you could have subServers

I don't understand this code.

So, first, you create a server if it doesn't exist. That part makes sense, although your code doesn't tell me what a server actually is.

Then, if that server is connected, you "get" and print the result of the "getting". What does that actually mean?

Then, you post a variable that you haven't shown here. What does that mean?

Given your naming and your link, I would say you're either talking about making a Rednet server API, so creating Rednet servers would be simpler (no defined protocol). Or, you're talking about HTTP. I don't know what you mean, but neither suggestion makes a whole lot of sense. If you could clarify, that'd be good.

Are you suggesting a way for the ComputerCraft computer to create an actual internet server? So you could use for things like hosting actual websites? Please rephrase your idea (the whole idea, not just a part of it), because nobody here seems to understand what your suggestion is.

While making a suggestion is useless for me, since I can't use the latest version of CC, …
While I'm not sure it's going to be used in the right way …

Just assume someRandomNumber is unseen code with a value created by math.ran or whatever
As for server, look here

Okay, a server is a device that provides functionality to other computers.

So what you're saying is, when you run `server.create(stuff)`, a new computer spawns into existence next to where you're standing?

If not, then you're going to have to be more specific about what you actually want to happen.

Daniel Ratcliffe just gets a lot of servers.

Let's say this
Daniel Ratcliffe just gets a lot of servers. He decides to use them to improve his mod, and add THAT server API. However, they are not active. The server.create tells the server 'your needed'

Oh, so you want a way to send data between different Minecraft servers / singleplayer games.

So what do `server.post` and `server.get` do?
