Redirects are not visible #27

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago 
Problem:
1. Call a webservice which will result in a 301 permanent redirect.
2. Have a look at the response window.

The status now says '200 OK' when in fact I was getting a 301 permanent 
redirect with a new location.

I would wish for a way to see the redirect header and the new location, 
before deciding to follow it.

(Poster 2.0.0 on Firefox 3.5.2 on Windows XP)

Firefox is automatically following the headers.  I'm not sure if there is a way 
to tell the XMLHttpRequest object to 
not follow re-directs.  I'll have to research this.

XMLHttpRequest does not allow turning off following redirects.
