http_client_body

The http_client_body keyword is a content modifier that restricts the search to the NORMALIZED body of an HTTP client request.

The rule listed in Figure [*] constrains the search for the pattern "EFG" to the NORMALIZED body of an HTTP client request.

As this keyword is a modifier to the previous 'content' keyword, there must be a content in the rule before 'http_client_body' is specified.
