http message request display

[elkodesign]

Hi all,

Is there a way to find out what a http message request looks like?

I've tried to work out rfc2616 but it would be far more easy to just spit out just the message on screen using, for instance, php, asp or coldfusion.

More specific, i'm trying to simulate a form post with file upload using xmlhttprequest.

Yours truly,

Elko.
