Developer’s Description

By Overture Computing
Diagnose problems by viewing raw HTTP traffic between your browser and an HTTP server.

Used to examine unaltered http requests and responses intercepted with and without proxy. There are several views for the data. Raw view shows the data in bytes. Text view shows the headers in the request and response as well as the http payload. The list of requests and responses are also available in two different views. One view shows the summary of the request. The other view shows the actual sends and receives performed by the browser. It is possible to search through the request urls to look for a particular url using regular expression syntax. httpExplorer works by intercepting the client/server data stream of the embeded browser. It can also work in proxy mode where the data is intercepted by emulating a proxy server. New features include total response times, color coded background colors based on the http response codes, and the new XP style menu. Serveral known bugs have been exterminated.
