HTTP Client 'Web View' – My OSCON FOSS contribution
I’ve been using HTTP Client for testing HTTP requests for some time, but I’ve needed to be able to view the response as rendered in the browser on occasion. This is especially true when working with Django errors as they are very rich HTML content.
So since I’m at OSCON I thought it would be a good time scratch that itch while giving something back.
Pretty simple hack, but infinitely useful for me personally. Hopefully someone else will find it useful as well.
So here it is in all it’s glory. It’s compiled for Mac-Intel/Leopard.

I have a fork on github that adds an option to turn off certificate validation (for testing with dev https boxes), and fixes a “double” escaping issue.. if you put up your changes somewhere I can submit some patches…

Why thank you — this has been on my own to-do list.
