I've never heard these terms in combination with HTTP.
RFC 2616 mentions neither "push" nor "pull" in it's 175 pages.

HTTP is a client/server protocol. The client is the one that
opens connections and sends requests, the server is the one
sending responses back over the connection opened by the client.

I just came across this link: http://wp.netscape.com/assist/net_sites/pushpull.html

Here it says that "client pull" is part of the META tag.

cheers,
  Roland
