Yes - exactly. HTTPWatch only displays the HTTP traffic of the request - it doesn't alter it anyway. What's really nice is that it displays ALL the traffic (with timings) so you can see how many requests a page is making, figure out it if that external style sheet is being cached or if that "little" image is actually taking a long, long time. For each request it will show you a summary, headers, cookies, cache information, query string information, POST data, the actual content and the entire HTTP stream. Very neat stuff. I couldn't find a tool that does exactly the same thing but this one comes close in FireFox: http://livehttpheaders.mozdev.org/ I don't it'll help in this case since it doesn't actually show the content of the page! This one seems closer and is a "machine" level tool rather than a browser tool (which means it would work in all browsers - or indeed any HTTP application). It's not free, but it's only $29 for a non-commerical license and $50 for a commercial one. http://effetech.com/sniffer/ Jim Davis ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Find out how CFTicket can increase your company's customer support efficiency by 100% http://www.houseoffusion.com/banners/view.cfm?bannerid=49 Message: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=i:4:215952 Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/threads.cfm/4 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=s:4 Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.4 Donations & Support: http://www.houseoffusion.com/tiny.cfm/54
