Try with paros (http://www.parosproxy.org/index.shtml).
It's a small proxy written in JAVA: with it you can trap all the requests
and the responses.

Please respond to
libcurl development
Hello list,
I'm trying to get through a https/POST login form with libcurl.
Unfortunately I can't get it to work, but the same login works fine with
any browser I've tried, including links and lynx (so there are no tricks
with javascript or images).
What I need is a tool which somehow goes between a browser or my curl
app and the server so that I can monitor what's actually being sent back
and forth, and how the communication between the server and a browser
that works differs from what goes on between the server and my app.
Argh -- while I was typing I realized that this is an SSL connection. A
tool outside the client will not be useful. So let me rephrase my
request: I need an http client that can log the http traffic. I already
looked at Lynx's -trace option, but that seems to burp up the entire
internal state of the HTML parser, so it's not so useful.
Maybe I'll have to hack some browser, but first I want to look if
something like this is available.
Thanks for any tips,
--D.
