Thiyagu I think the closest you will get to this is a right click on one of the pieces of communication that is in the transaction and then filter tcp stream. I'm not aware of a way to filter down to a specific HTTP transaction, especially if you can send multiple gets in one TCP connection.

Thanks Paulius. I have more questions.

Does HTTP uses multiple TCP stream for one GET or POST request?

    Thiyagu I do not believe it would occur across multiple TCP streams but I could be wrong on this. From my undertanding the TCP stream is purely based on when the TCP connection opens and closes.
