This plugin really fill a gap in realtime HTTP content monitoring for web developers and hackers. I also use Firebug, that has almost all, what I want in web development, but it lacks protocol analyzing features, that HttpFox has. Very very very good job. Thanks a lot!

Some wishes and ideas about content representation. HttpFox may have more downloaded content representation options. For source files, binary content, images etc. A good solution may be content split to native and raw windows, where raw data is represented in standard hexadecimal editor view (pane with hex data at left and symbolic data at right). And extra views for sources (syntax coloring) and images (preview window). Plus option for saving images and other stuff from captured packet (Save content as... option).
