In Chrome, how can I see what AJAX requests are being made?
In Firefox I use Firebug and I can see any background AJAX request that are made.
you can also use liveHTTPHeader, a chrome/firefox extension. it works pretty well.
In new Chrome browsers you can press F12 key or CTRL+SHIFT+I key combinations to view the Developer Tools. From there AJAX/XHR calls can be viewed through Network tab.
Here's what works for me on Linux and Windows 10:
F12
to open developer tools Open the developer tools with Ctrl-Shift-i, or via the menu at Wrench/Tools/Developer tools:
Click on the Network Tab:
Click on the "XHR" link at the bottom of the list to filter the results to only AJAX requests:
Click on a request at the left to select it and use the "Headers", "Content", "Cookies" and "Timing" tabs for that request to see more details:
You can use the button in the bottom left of the tools to open the tools in their own window if you like.
