About WebDAV WebDAV (Web Distributed Authoring and Versioning) is a set of extensions to the Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP), letting you read, write, update, lock, and save documents over the Web as simply as if they were on a local file system. WebDAV also provides a standard infrastructure for collaborative authoring. Using a WebDAV client, people can work together on a word-processing document, an XML document, or an image file - regardless of the software program or Internet service they are using. The protocol was proposed by the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF), and its development has been assisted by Microsoft, Netscape, Xerox, IBM, and Novell, as well as the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C).
