Suppose there is an HTTP request to index.html, and there are four

127.0.0.1 [23/May/2008:00:09:41] "GET /index.htmlHTTP/1.1" 200 "Mozilla/4.08"
127.0.0.1 [23/May/2008:00:09:41] "GET /style.css HTTP/1.1" 200 "Mozilla/4.08"
127.0.0.1 [23/May/2008:00:09:42] "GET /pic1.gif HTTP/1.1" 404 "Mozilla/4.08"
127.0.0.1 [23/May/2008:00:09:42] "GET /pic2.gif HTTP/1.1" 200 "Mozilla/4.08"

My question is what we call "index.html" and the other three resources
in this case. Is there any term like "base request" that refers to
"index.html" and "related requests" to the other three entries?

Thanks,
Paul

I don't think there are any "industry standard" terms for them, but in regards to web traffic analysis programs, such as AWstats, the request for "/index.html" would be called a "Page Request" and the other elements would be called "Hits". A "Page Request" generally refers to the file that provides the HTML content of the page. A "Hit" refers to ANY file that is requested by the user (gif, png, css, swf, etc).
