WebDAV is a set of extensions to HTTP to support distributed authoring and versioning. It defines some request methods, message headers and XML message bodies which at their most basic, add metadata and locking to HTTP. Because it's based on HTTP and XML, it's quite easy to implement a WebDAV server in CGI or PHP. WebDAV maps very cleanly to file system primitives, so most modern operating systems support mounting WebDAV resources as file systems.

The Wikipedia:WebDAV article and the WebDAV home page describe WebDAV in more detail. WebDAV is formally defined in RFC 4918. The WebDAV versioning extension, DeltaV, is defined in RFC 3253.
