Hi all,

I am doing a little project that adds some code to the
firefox browser so it can inspect every outgoing 
http/https request, before the request is sent out.

I have gone through the book "Creating XPCOM
Components"
by Doug Tuner and Ian Oeschger to get an overall idea
on how to write code in Mozilla, and the book is quite
helpful.

The weblock example in the book is kind of like what I
need to do, but I am not sure if the
nsIContentPolicy's
ShouldLoad method is called before or after the http 
request is ent out?  If it is after the request sent 
out, what other events my code should be listening? 
Also, my code need to access the headers and
parameters 
of the http request, is that possible inside the
ShouldLoad method?

Can anyone provide some info regarding various mozilla
components involved in a simple http request and 
response flow?

Thanks in advance.

Alan
