hi, I need to see what all requests my browser(firefox 1.0.7) is sending.. is there any place where i can make the browser log these things? Or is there like a proxy like thing that i can install and make my browser go through this proxy and then the proxy can spit out the details. I am really clueless about this, so if anyone could please give some pointers it would be great help. I tried googling but didnt find anything relavent.
Im using Ubuntu 5.10
thanks

There is no proxy-like-thing. There is a proxy server - Squid which you can install. It has powerful logging features as well as policies. If you're a low level guy you can always use Ethereal / tcpdump ;)
ciao!

There is a Firefox extension which logs the HTTP request and response headers. You can search for that and see if it fits your needs.

You can look at the following firefox extensions to look and modify HTTP data
Live HTTP Headers : http://livehttpheaders.mozdev.org/ Modify Headers : http://modifyheaders.mozdev.org/ Tamper Data : http://tamperdata.mozdev.org/

There is one interesting plugin [1] of Firefox called selenium [2]. Just go through it. Major benefit of selenium is that you can record all the activity of you browser and replay it again, very useful for black box testing of web applications.

Hope it helps...
