Opening the inspector from the debug menu seems to crash it no matter what page you're on.

[David Kilzer (:ddkilzer)]

Also reproduced on a PowerBook G4 with Mac OS X 10.4.10 (8R218) and Safari 3.0 (522.11) with a local debug build of WebKit r23678 after opening http://www.apple.com/ in the first (and only) browser window.

Oh DUH!  This is the OLD, OLD Web Inspector menu item from the Safari 2.x days!

I need to right-click and select "Inspect Element" to get the new one!

I need to put this in Radar and close it as RESOLVED/INVALID here since it's a Safari bug.

Sorry!

Fixed in r23682.

Mass removal of NeedsRadar keyword from my bugs that have already been RESOLVED.
