web-inspector

I've grown tired of the multitude of issues I seem to hit on a daily basis with Firefox and I'm trying once again to switch to Chrome. One of the things that frustrates me is the layout of the tabs in the inspector. In firebug they are all along the top so if I want the metrics of an item it's incredibly simple. In Chrome I'm forever scrolling up and down. Is there anyway to change the way this works? All I want to do is change the layout to something a little similar to Firebug. Cheers! Boris Smus The Chrome web inspector is just a web application, so is very customizable. You can download a

How can I pop up Webkit's Web Inspector from my WebView object programmatically? I succeed to enable Webkit's Web Inspector on my WebView. It's working well, and now I can pop it up by clicking "Inspect Element" on context menu. And I want to do this with my push button. But I couldn't find a proper way to do this. My DOM knowledge is 10 years old, very newbie on HTML DOM of nowadays. Is there any way to do this? I found a class document: InspectorController . I think this is a kind of key. But I cannot know what object exposes and how can I use this. Environment: Mac OS X 10.6 Xcode 3.2.1

I'll pick Chrome for this example, but I'm open to a solution from any browser. Use Case: I have an update button on my website that is used to update item quantities in a shopping cart. I'd like to allow a user to enter a 0 and click update in order to remove the item. Trouble is, there is some listener in some js function that is denying the ability to enter a 0 and click update (after clicking update the old quantity remains). My question is, what developer tool can I use to find which js function is running during that event? I don't think that Chrome's inspector does this, and I'm not

iOS 6 comes with built-in support for remote debugging ( 1 minute screencast ). It plays nice with the new Safari Web Inspector which seems to be a 1 year old fork of WebKit Inspector. It misses some features such JS editing and WebSocket frames inspection. Safari's Web inspector does use the WebKit remote debugging protocol. However, Safari does not use TCP/HTTP as a transport layer, thus making it incompatible with Chrome. says Timothy Hatcher (aka Xenon), Apple employe What does Safari use for transport layer? Can I make a proxy from this mysterious transport layer to HTTP to make it work

What's the best way to determine if the user has the browser console (i.e. firebug, webkit inspector, Opera dragonfly) open ? (I.e. I'm not interested in merely detecting the presence of the console object in script. I want to know when the user has actually opened the debugger panel. Ideally across the major browsers (IE/Safari/Chrome/Firefox... and even mobile browsers if possible) remdevtec If you are willing to accept an interference for the user, you could use the debugger statement , as it is available in all major browsers. Side note: If the users of your app are interested in console

I try to eleminate an 404 error occuring because the source (src) is missing.. var $chart = $("<img />") .addClass("trend-pic") .error(function(){ console.log("error loading..") }); try{ $chart.attr("src", jobs[counter].url + "test/trend") }catch(err){ $chart.attr("src", ""); } if tried many stuff to catch the error i.e. putting an .error(function(){}) at the end. use the $chart.load() - method to check if the images gets loaded? Non of those helped? GET {myURLString} 404 (Not Found) Browser: Safari You can't really delete those 404 errors from the console. The best you can do is make some

What tab in chrome inspector shows the font files you're loading via font-face? I can't find it under resources. I'm having an issue where one group of font-family files are loading, but another font-family is not. I have checked everything from going directly to the URL and seeing they are indeed present, but I would like to look in the inspector and see it loading the one font-family but not the other. Is this possible with chrome? Adrift You can view the downloaded web fonts using the Network tab: cfg You can also select any text node in the elements panel, then look at the bottom of the

When I'm working with CSS, I'll often test in a browser - say, Chrome - right click an element, click Inspect Element, and edit the CSS right there. The use of arrow keys to change things like margin and padding makes lining things up super easy. It's not too hard to then take those changes and apply them to the CSS file, but it would be cool if I could just right click the selector in the inspector and select "export" or "copy", and have the contents available in my clipboard. Does something like this exist? Nicholas Zographos I have found the answer to this, at least as of Chrome v14. While
