How to get a preview of the HTML returned by a network requests?

I have the "new" version of Firebug, which is integrated into the web developer tools (Firefox 51.0.1 on MAC) - but now I am unable to get the returned result as answer from an Post Request (in this case Laravel).

HTML source shown for network request

Now I can only get the result as HTML content, not the rendered result (like in the "old" Firebug).

Any ideas how to change that? I dont find anything in the settings.

Solution

  • When you select the request within the Network Monitor there will be a Preview side panel showing the HTML contents.

    Update
    The preview was removed in Firefox 55. It is added back in Firefox 59 placing it within the Response panel.
