SOLVED - Any tool to capture URL content sent ?
Hi everyone,
Is there a tool to get me a good "picture" of the content of an internet URL the stack is sending to the internet (or receiving from it) ...some tool easy to install that would show me (in real time) something like this, as soon as I click a send button of my LC stack.

https://www.google.com/search?source=hp ... sy-ab.3..0
..or if that can be done within an LC stack : whats the funcion name ?
..just a way to actually check the full characters content of a request to a server.
*hope I make myself clear here...
I m under W10.

Hola teriibi,
sorry, I have no idea what you are looking for?
Did you click you own links?
The first one goes to the forum page where we can create a new thread!?
The second one is a GOOGLE search with "What is Livecode", which we already know
Do they have anything to do with what you are looking for?
Or is it just a test for our attention span?
Best
Klaus

With that link I just get:
Application error
An error occurred in the application and your page could not be served. If you are the application owner, check your logs for details.

Looks like their website is down..I was just using it last night and it helped me debug some header data that was being sent from a remote device.
their Twitter account confirms issue...should be back up shortly.

Re: Any tool to capture URL content sent ?
Aha, but I still have no idea what teriibi actually wants...
Re: Any tool to capture URL content sent ?
no nooo...
don t even click on those links...
those are just a sample of what I want a special tool to show me.
i am in the following case :
I created a stack.
The stack is able to send a request to a server online.
I press SEND button.
The Send button will process such request like : " request user name of such Id: xx" in the form of a link, right ?
I just would like to "retreive" - or read - the "whole sequense of characters in the URL content that is being sent away...
==>> https://www.MYSERVER.com/PARAMETERS PASSWORD, NAME, ETC,,,ETC,,,
(something that would look alike those two links i pasted..or whatever link you can read in the top of your browser...)
Made it more clear ? ..or not so ?
PS:
Purpose, If i sent a Private data, that I am trying to be sure was encrypted in my Script...can I read the URL sent away so that I can check that it doesnt go out in Plain clear text !!! (check that the Script is really working to hide or - fail to hide - any data that I wanted to)

Re: Any tool to capture URL content sent ?
Yeap Cottage...Maybe will do the trick...
So how do one uses it ?
do I just replace teh URL: https://requestb.in/ instead of my own server/page : myown.com/mypage.php request ?
..or how does it work ?
Code: Select all
https://requestb.in/

Re: Any tool to capture URL content sent ?
at the site, create a "Request Bin"
that gives you a unique url to use
replace your url of your server for that in your LC app
send
go to that link and refresh page...you can do it a bunch of times. It stores your requests for 24 hours

For examining the contents (headers and data) of RESTful commands I use either postman or httpie. If you need something to examine a data stream in situ and can't mock it up for postman etc, then you probably want Wireshark.

A nice tool on Mac OS X, Win and Linux for such tasks is Charles.
https://www.charlesproxy.com
Short description from the website:
Charles is an HTTP proxy / HTTP monitor / Reverse Proxy that enables a developer to view all of the HTTP and SSL / HTTPS traffic between their machine and the Internet. This includes requests, responses and the HTTP headers (which contain the cookies and caching information).
