How do I get the response headers in Selenium?
How can I get request/response logs in selenium? I have an ajax call that returns login information, and whenever I try to capture it via:
selenium.captureNetworkTraffic("json");
it returns only client-side items (like images .pn), but not the actual JSON response I'm interested in.

Unfortunately, it doesn't look like you can do that with selenium alone in an automated fashion, as this is against their design principles for selenium. I don't agree that it is (since it supports getting cookie information -- what user actually goes through and parses through their cookies?).
Their 'schtick' is that selenium helps you automate what a user does; since a user doesn't care about the response headers, why would this framework? For me, this is disappointing because I need to ensure the content type being returned is what I believe it should be (to test an API). It appears another Stack Overflow question has come to a similar conclusion.
