Troubleshooting Infinite Redirection in a Web Application
I have a web app that is trying to redirect in a loop, and Firefox tells me that it stops because the request will never complete. Is there a good way (in Firefox) to see which url is being requested in this endless loop? The address is not displayed in the address bar. Are there any add-ons that can help with this?

Firebug is always a popular choice. There is a console window that will show you all the different requests your browser makes.
I'm also a fan of LiveHTTPHeaders , which gives you a separate window that displays all the headers and results of a request. If your browser is making a lot of requests, you will get a long log of them.
In the situation described, I will probably go with LiveHTTPHeaders as it logs all requests across all pages. Firebug is better for every page and more useful for inspecting Ajax requests.
