Since this is a theoretical discussion, maybe stating some of the
basics regarding HTTP would not be unwelcome.

1.  WEB MVC STRUCTURE: The difference between standalone and web
applications in relationship to the MVC framework is that standalone
applications have components on screens which communicate with the
rest of the framework but the entire screen (page) communicates with
the rest of the framework.

2.  WEB MVC DATA: Since this is so, very different types of
information are sent back in a sort of "flood" to the framework, e.g.
(a) "plain" data such as credit card numbers, how many widgets the
user wants, etc.; (b) "controller" data such as what handler should be
used; (c) "processing" data such as what method to call on the
handler; (d) "presentation" data such as what colors to make the
screen, what layout to use on the screen, etc., which can take many
different forms and which can relate to the serverside in many
different ways; (e) etc.   The types of data breakdown here is
indefinite and framework related.

Given this much, what does the following mean?
