How do I track the route to my destination page from various 301s?


Simple question for someone who might know, the most difficult thing in the world for me:

There's this url: http://hstgb.tradedoubler.com/file/118779/banners/searchboxes/holidays_search_8Sep09.html?url=http://clkgb.tradedoubler.com/click?p=118779&a=1868402&g=18436588

It's an affiliate url (I'm not trying to get you to buy anything ;) )

Now when I click search, it takes me to an intermediary page, which then sends parameters to lastminute to open the destination page.

The second page goes so quickly that I cannot view it or anyhow read it's source code. How do I track the page and parameters sent?


Solution

  • You could use a packet sniffer such as Wireshark or a browser add-on that monitors network traffic, to capture every request that gets send and every page that gets received.
