The trite answer is that the browsers must be sending different requests. JMeter only records what it is sent. However, the question is why do the requests differ? Perhaps a previous response causes the browser to behave differently. JMeter does not forward the browser request unchanged; it converts it into a sampler and then executes that. This process may result in different data being seen by the server, which in turn may respond differently. [Some changes may be due to JMeter, and some may be due to the HTTP implementation.] It would be useful to know how the browser requests differ when connecting directly to the site. And of course, if the site response differs. You could do this using a protocol analyser such as Wireshark. Or there may be a plugin that captures the traffic. > What browser are you using for recording with JMeter? > > I have a feeling that Prostak ran into the same issue in > http://jmeter.512774.n5.nabble.com/Repetitive-requests-axd-aspx-td2815876.html > > > kind Regards, > Sander > -- > View this message in context: > http://jmeter.512774.n5.nabble.com/Differences-during-recording-IE6-vs-IE7-axd-files-tp3244856p3244856.html > Sent from the JMeter - User mailing list archive at Nabble.com. > > --------------------------------------------------------------------- > To unsubscribe, e-mail: jmeter-user-unsubscr...@jakarta.apache.org > For additional commands, e-mail: jmeter-user-h...@jakarta.apache.org > > --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: jmeter-user-unsubscr...@jakarta.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: jmeter-user-h...@jakarta.apache.org
