One element of an HTTP <A HREF="../../../org/apache/http/Header.html" title="interface in org.apache.http"><CODE>header</CODE></A> value consisting of
a name / value pair and a number of optional name / value parameters.
<p>
Some HTTP headers (such as the set-cookie header) have values that
can be decomposed into multiple elements. Such headers must be in the
following form:
</p>
<pre>
header = [ element ] *( "," [ element ] )
element = name [ "=" [ value ] ] *( ";" [ param ] )
param = name [ "=" [ value ] ]
name = token
value = ( token | quoted-string )
token = 1*&lt;any char except "=", ",", ";", &lt;"&gt; and
white space&gt;
quoted-string = &lt;"&gt; *( text | quoted-char ) &lt;"&gt;
text = any char except &lt;"&gt;
quoted-char = "\" char
</pre>
<p>
Any amount of white space is allowed between any part of the
header, element or param and is ignored. A missing value in any
element or param will be stored as the empty <A HREF="http://download.oracle.com/javase/1.5.0/docs/api/java/lang/String.html" title="class or interface in java.lang"><CODE>String</CODE></A>;
if the "=" is also missing <var>null</var> will be stored instead.
