Firebug can capture XHR traffic, but Doug's problems are related to the CSS/secondary stuff loaded by the browser as a consequence. You could try the Mozilla LiveHTTPHeaders extension, which will record all the traffic to a browser, and can save sessions to disk. (Fiddler does a similar job, and can intercept traffic from non-Moz browsers, but won't run on a Mac unless you've got Parallels or VMWare, I guess.)
Sounds like a browser issue rather than a Prototype one, as the PeriodicalUpdater will only fetch the content, and then hand off to the browser for any associated CSS, images, etc. Dave On Tuesday 27 March 2007 22:50, David Dashifen Kees wrote: > Your best bet for debugging javascript is to use the Firebug extension > for Firefox.
