I need some tool to view HTTP requests

It's probably some browser extension or a proxy.

For example, I open google.com, and type something and press 'Search'. And I want to see all params of http-request (like, method, domain, params etc).

Wireshark

Wireshark is a free and open-source packet analyzer. It is used for network troubleshooting, analysis, software and communications protocol development, and education. Originally named Ethereal, the project was renamed Wireshark in May 2006 due to trademark issues.

Sometimes proxy is not a good solution, since it makes impact on your connection settings.

Check the HTTP Debugger Pro.

I supports both HTTP and HTTPS connections for all browsers, including Chrome.

If you are going to do monitoring and debugging in Firefox only.

Simple, lightweight, clean, and easy to use

If you're not using Windows, disregard this answer.

I used to use Wireshark, but I recently started using Microsoft Network Monitor which is very nice as well. If you have your own custom protocol (which I know the OP does not), it is very easy to write your own protocol parser, which is a big PITA with Wireshark.

I use Live HTTP Headers and Firebug plugins for Firefox to see live data coming from a website.

If you're just looking for what could be in it, take a look at the w3c standard here, the original RFC, or the updated RFC.

Firebug's Net section has some of the relevant information, but it's more of response/time loading time. The headers are present however.

If using Firefox, Live HTTP Headers is a nice add-on:

If you're using Firefox, HttpFox is excellent for this. Can inspect all GET/POST content, headers etc.
