With firebug stop loading so can see requests

I am trying to analyze a POST request using firebug. Using the net panel I can see the request, however when the POST has success the page then reloads and I only have a couple of seconds to actually look at the request and see what is going on. Is there a way I can pause it much like when analyzing scripts using this tool?

Even better, if you're on Windows you can use Fiddler - an amazing and free HTTP debugger developed by some important guy on the Microsoft IE team.

With it you can conditionally intercept GET or POST requests, inspect and change parameters, break on responses, change responses (headers or body), reissue old requests and generally screw with your application during development.

Simply one of the most useful web development tools. Ever.

May require a little tweaking for localhost - see here

There is a "Persist" button on some of the tabs in Firebug. Just make sure to click it before doing your post.

[edit] Second row, third button from the left, on the Console and Net tabs.

One solution would be to remove the refresh of the page from your code.

Then run your code to see the results.
