Can you add a find function? It would be nice to be able to find what you are looking for instead of scrolling through thousands of requests. Keep up the great work!!

Any comments, suggestions or solutions would be very helpful. The problem: I want to log the URLs requested by a browser into a file. What I have explored: I installed the Livehttpheaders extension for firefox, it does log URLs but does not seem to do it continuously to a file. You have to press the save-all button. I need a continuous logging mechanism. Is my interpretation wrong? Is there a way to make the extension log information continuously to a file? Also, can the extension keep running in the background and not popup in the foreground/new window/sidebar? Would definitely appreciate any help people!

I got commit access from Daniel Savard in order to make a LHH release for the last major Firefox release. Since then, I've made some effort to 1) make the extension easier to find (by adding it to addons.mozilla.org) 2) add translations for various languages (courtesy of the translators at Babelzilla) 3) fix the bugs (both old and regression in newer versions) 4) add some of the simpler features that have been requested 1 and 2 went well. 3 got partially done; the core feature set works in FF2, but many important bugs have remained unfixed. 4 hasn't happened at all. I apologize to the many users of this extension for not being a better maintainer. Sadly, I've lacked the motivation to push out a new release (although the pending FF3 release has bumped it up on my list of things to do). Most of my lack of motivation is due to the codebase being old 'n crufty (really needs cleanup) and practically untestable (so many supported versions and no automated tests). My normal response would be an incremental refactoring of the code, but the version and testing mess makes it incredibly difficult to do this without breaking all sorts of things. This isn't the fault of anyone in particular; it's pretty natural with long-term, ad-hoc development. The other problem is that I'm not comfortable with taking full control of a project I still view as owned by Daniel. My current plan is to make a few patches so the extension at least keeps it's current level of functionality in FF3 and release that. LHH 1.x will remain on life support while I (hopefully) work on a complete rewrite and redesign (call it LHH 2). The core functionality of LHH is pretty simple and can be placed in a couple services, which can form an API. The current UI should simply call that API and have very little logic in it. Compartmentalizing everything also means that people could write extensions to LHH, adding the various advanced functionality they want, without needing to write a whole lot of code or touch the core of LHH. The API should be pretty easy to test. The UI will be harder to test and more fragile, but it will hopefully also be very simple (so breaks will be easy to fix). Once LHH 2 is ready for general use and comparable to LHH 1 in features (whenever that is), I'd like to stop maintaining LHH 1; existing versions should remain available, but there won't be any updates. Of course, all of this is predicated on me sitting down, going through the patches I know are in bugzilla, and writing more code. Here's what I'll try to do in the next week (so by 4/18), and you can kick me if it doesn't happen: * go through bugzilla, merge duplicate bugs and collect patches (applying might have to wait a bit so I can review, resolve conflicts, etc.) * set up a new site, for the LHH 2 project, and at least post a roadmap (code would be nice, but making LHH 1 work with FF3 is higher priority at the moment) The major goal of the new site will be making it easier for others to contribute. As it stands, I don't even get bugzilla e-mails unless I add myself to each new bug and the RSS feed isn't terribly helpful. If you're interested in helping out and have suggestions, feel free to contact me (either on- or off-list). I'm definitely interested in having more than one maintainer, to avoid the kind of stagnation that's happened repeatedly. Again, I apologize for the current state of things. Comments on my plans are more than welcome. Thanks, -Nikolas Coukouma LiveHTTPHeaders maintainer apparent -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
