Install the Firefox extension called "Live HTTP headers", and look at the "Generator" tab. This appears to be what you want.
-----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Peter Jessop Sent: 07 June 2006 11:00 To: tutor@python.org Subject: [Tutor] (OT) Monitorising WEB POSTs I am building a python application to automate information capture from a web site. I want to use a python application to request and process the information instead of using the site's WEB page. However I am having problems finding out exactly what data the server expects. I have a firefox add-in called Web Developer that gives me good information about the form (fields names etc..) But what I want to do is find out exactly what POST data my browser is sending. I am aware of two ways of doing this. a) A sniffer to read the udp packet sent from my computer b) Send the page to my own WEB server Is there a program or add in that will give me this information without resorting to the solutions above.
