    Hello, I'm looking for a way to fake the http Requests from a browser to my server.

    You know, when you build or transfer a site to your server, there will be a delay until you or someone who controls the DNS makes the actual changes so the domain name will point to your server. So, it's possible that during the transfer, the changes you made where not complete or correct, resolting in an error when the domain starts pointing at your server.

    As I understand, the server looks at the http request from your browser and serves you the propper website. Is there a way to fake that in order to check the website before the name resolves to my server?

    I use this method to test customer servers quite often and added a link on my desktop to the file, so I can edit it with a double click if I need to add a new domain.
