Also I recommend https://github.com/shenfeng/tiny-web-server, as it's much simpler than httpd.
Read RFC2616, if you don't want to do too much low level and have some fun in C, you can use https://github.com/libuv/libuv which drives Node.js and some other stuff. It is portable, uses/provides fancy nonblocking stuff - and you can find some examples on GitHub for basic webservers, there is a user guide at http://docs.libuv.org/en/v1.x/guide.html for more stuff (filesystem access, ...)
