view response content of ajax,flash http requests

I'm interested if there is some tool (preferably a firefox addon) that allows you to record http requests and view their response header and content.

Firefox's firebug and webkits developer tools.

I pretty much had them installed, but they don't allow monitoring http response body

Try HttpFox :

HttpFox monitors and analyzes all incoming and outgoing HTTP traffic between the browser and the web servers.

It aims to bring the functionality known from tools like HttpWatch or IEInspector to the Firefox browser.

Information available per request includes: - Request and response headers

Sent and received cookies

Querystring parameters

POST parameters

Response body

I wanted to mark it but stackoverflow told me to wait.

I recommend using Charles, http://www.charlesproxy.com/.

Charles is a stand-alone application, not a browser addon (but it has browser integration) which I personally prefer, since it can monitor http traffic also outside the browser, for example when a swf is run locally or from an IDE, or any other http traffic on your system.

If you prefer a browser addon, I believe Fiddler is quite popular, http://www.fiddler2.com/.
