HTTP is just a protocol (set of rules) defining transmissions over TCP/IP or actually any suitable medium.
Web browsers and web servers obey these rules. The basic commands in http are GET, PUT and POST. As BluPhenix alluded, with a lot of learning and a little effort you can send and receive all sorts of things a web server expects without having to develop a full web browser.
