How to debug a Firefox search engine plugin?

Question

I am writing a search engine plugin for Firefox.

I want to implement search suggestions, so I want my plugin to send requests to my server to get them.

In order to debug this functionality I need to see what requests have been sent and what response is returned.

I noticed that Firebug does not log this info. So I need something else. How can I do that?

Answer 1

The add-on LiveHTTPHeaders works.

Also try Ctrl+Shift+Q and look at the Network tab, that will probably work, too, although I haven't used that before.

Answer 2

Tools-->Web Developer--->Browser Console(Ctrl+Shift+J)

And in the tab of Net, check "Log Request and Response Bodies"
