If you can log in with the lynx text browser, then you can turn on its trace mode and get a trace file (~/Lynx.trace) that shows exactly what's going on. 
lynx -trace http://foo.bar/

[download]
The trace file is a bit cluttered with debug info concerning how Lynx parses and renders HTML, but it is still pretty easy to follow.

    forgot to mention.. alternative, if you use firefox from mozilla, there is the 'Live Http Header' plugin. it's simpler and easier to use.
