Current behaviour

When I'm using AJAX, and I send a PUT/POST/DELETE HTTP petition it automatically refreshes the page, It does not happen with GET petition.

Expected behaviour

In my humble opinion, I do think that the extension should only refresh the page if we save the document in VSCode, and not if we send any HTTP Header. I tried to send the same request without using the extension and it didn't refresh my page, so that is not a code problem.

I am sure you could fix it, much thanks for the extension is very helpful to many of us.

Keep the good work going!!
Thanks for your time.

I have a similar issue here as well. It happens anytime I update the database though with my Node.JS backend. Only then does it refresh the page.
