Using Fiddler with the VS Web Development Server (Cassini)

It's been a while since I had to use Fiddler with Cassini, the Web server included with Visual Studio.  Fiddler is a HTTP Debugging Proxy which logs all HTTP traffic between your computer and the Internet.  It is free and it is a must have tool.

However, to use it with Cassini, you must do one little simple thing: in the URL of your browser, you must add a dot (.) after localhost.  Something like http://localhost.:5555/Default.aspx
Notice
the dot: http://localhost.:5555/Default.aspx

Get Fiddler here: http://www.fiddlertool.com
