Saw a lot of recommendations for Firebug (http://www.joehewitt.com/software/firebug/) on this list. I''ve scanned its docs and tried it--many useful features. But I''m so dense that I can''t get it to spy XHR/AJAX requests and their response on FC5 running Firefox 1.5.0.4 and Firebug 0.4. Can someone tell me how to get to http://www.joehewitt.com/software/firebug/screens/spy.png ? Thanks in advance! Doug. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.
Go to "Options" > Make sure "Show XMLHttpRequests" is checked, Then go to "Console". -----Original Message----- From: rails-bounces@lists.rubyonrails.org [mailto:rails-bounces@lists.rubyonrails.org] On Behalf Of Doug Dupory Sent: Wednesday, July 26, 2006 1:47 PM To: rails@lists.rubyonrails.org Subject: [Rails] How to Firebug XHR/AJAX requests Saw a lot of recommendations for Firebug (http://www.joehewitt.com/software/firebug/) on this list.

on the bottom (status) bar of Firefox you should see a green circle w/ a check in it. Click that, it should popup the window in the screenshoot you sent. If you''re on the Console tab, all AJAX requests will be visible. ed On 7/26/06, Doug Dupory <dudupy@gmail.com> wrote:> > Saw a lot of recommendations for Firebug > (http://www.joehewitt.com/software/firebug/) on this list.

Thank you, Michael, for your hint. I made it sure "Show XMLHttpRequests" was on by turning it off and back on and restarting Firefox. But, still no XHR requests/responses (actually nothing) in the Console. What else could I be missing?

Doug, -Have you tested it with other sites (beside your own) that use ajax ? -Don''t know how much rails supports this, but just in case you''re using Prototype directly: handle OnException and display the exception -On my dev machine (FC3, same version of firefox and firebug) I can''t send XMLHttpRequests to ''localhost'' (no idea why), only to it''s ip address (haven''t tried 127.0.0.1) Hope this helps somehow...
