Author Topic: I need special browser (Read 1158 times)

DukePuke · « **on:** 9 April 2004, 15:01 »

for linuxoze of course. Base requirement : I want to see EVERY command that browser sends to server (realtime or in logfile). For example "GET /index.html" or so. I dont care about environment, graphical or text.

btw maybe lynx has such feature? thanks!

Dillo.

If you start it from the command line, it'll show each thing that happens. However, the browser isn't fully functional.

i believe its OK little-browser, but btw I always having problems with GTK library apps. just compiled this and it prompts that program "cannot open display". This is beggining offtopic ;/

btw binaries work, thanks. And again : this is fuckin amazing browser, hoped to see command line shit like lynx, and got cool graphical environment.. But where is futures i hoped to see? (Monitoring commands sent to http server)? Just dont found way how to turn it,

^ Open it from a terminal window.

Ok, it prompts shit. But its still not what I looked for.. I mean browser who shows commands send to server (GET /index.html...) and so.. (Like visual ftp client like CuteFTP sends commands to server, it has nice window showing of sent commands)

With dillo, I get smth like this:

Connecting to 64.71.191.76
Nav_open_url: Url=>http://www.microsuck.com<
Dns_server

: www.microsuck.com is 0x80fe298
Connecting to 66.113.84.61
Dns_server
: images.paypal.com is 0x8169e70

So? Where is GET, HTTP , etc shit? no, there are no infidels. no .

(btw what this hexadecimal value in right means? f.e 0x80fe298)

Hey why don't you just use telent if you are so hardcore

anyway's Duke, why d'ya want these crazy features in the first place. If it's to learn then the HTTP is well documented...

one group of people learns reading manuals, and they becoming lack of practic3, another group of people learning better way : practice + theory. So jsut using http protocol and monitoring traffic between hosts, can have some advantages.

btw this time I dont need it for learning, I just need such browser. google is helpless (sad, but its true sometimes).

If you really want the HTTP protocol information, and don't want to shell out money for a packet sniffer, you could always write a local proxy to the log the packets for you. The headers sent to the proxy aren't much different than a standard header:

e.g. Proxy
GET http://www.google.com/ HTTP/1.1
Proxy-Connection: keep-alive

e.g. Standard
GET / HTTP/1.1
Connection: keep-alive
