Solution 1

You need a proxy such as Fiddler. Fiddler is a freeware HTTP Debugging Proxy which allows you to inspect all HTTP Traffic, set breakpoints, and "fiddle" with incoming or outgoing data.

Solution 2

Firebug is also a great addition to Firefox that will let you see HTTP traffic as well as lots of other aspects of your pages.

Solution 3

Might be a little bit of overkill in this instance, but you might want to check out Wireshark.

Solution 4

Checkout HttpFox

Solution 5

Live HTTP Headers is a nice Firefox plug-in.

    that's it

    isn't there a way to see the raw text file that my browser sends to a website when I do a POST method?

    something like:

    POST /path/script.cgi HTTP/1.0
    From: [email protected]
    User-Agent: HTTPTool/1.0
    Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded
    Content-Length: 32

    Thanks!

    But it doesn't show the RAW data. It shows everything categorized which, for some applications, is not always for the best...
