Not directly; the API required for that is not available in regular documents. But you can always write a simple extension yourself, or add custom user scripts with GreaseMonkey (on Firefox) or TamperMonkey (on Chrome). > For example I'd like to block some <img> tag or to modify on the fly > involved request headers. If you know the source location, you can just block an image with an ad blocker. Other than that (depending on your requirements), a local filtering proxy may be useful. Some desktop firewalls also have the ability to filter/modify requests. - stefan
