OnRequest and BeforeNavigate missing most traffic
These two callbacks aren't informed of most of the page traffic

Hi,

I am trying to obtain a definitive list of all outgoing requests so that I can selectively block them. I've successfully used BeforeNavigate and OnRequest to see *some* of the outgoing HTTP requests that the browser is making on a given page but it is clearly missing most of them.

Most in-page images and various other things that are triggered from Javascript in the page are getting through without ever triggering either one of these callbacks. Why is this ?

How do I go about ensuring that EVERY outgoing request on the page is intercepted ?

Hello George,

This would require creating a MIME filter. This feature isn't planned yet. In any case, this will not be developed this year.

Okay,

What is the criteria that causes those callbacks to be triggered ?

Thanks

Hi George,

In the current version of the product, OnRequest and BeforeNavigate events work for the 'text/html' content type only.
