Http Auth in a Firefox 3 bookmarklet

Can you sniff the traffic to find what's actually being sent? Is it sending any auth data at all and it's incorrect or being presented in a form the server doesn't like, or is it never being sent by firefox at all?

Does calling the method twice work?

Seems to me that your authentication is being approved after the content arrives, so then a second attempt now works because you have the correct cookies.

@travis Looks very nice! I will sure take a look into it. I can think of several places I can use that

I never got round to sniff the traffic but found out that a php site on my own server with http-auth worked fine, so i figured it was something with delicious. I then created a php page that does a wget of the delicious api and everything works fine :)
