Created attachment 270931 [details] Screenshot Clicking a URL will try to jump to the Network tab, where it will show the resource. If the Inspector was closed when the resource was loaded, it might not be in the Network tab. This causes a bad UX. We should prefer the Resources tab when the Network tab does not have the resource. Steps: 1) Load a page like https://webkit.org/blog/3574/web-inspector-interface-changes/ 2) Switch to the Network tab and make sure it was the last tab used 2) Inspect an image 3) Click on the image URL in the Elements tab Expected Result: Shows the image resource in the Resources tab with it selected in the sidebar. Actual Results Sometimes: Shows the image resource in the Network tab with a blank navigation bar and sidebar. Note: We prefer the most recently used tab, even though the Network tab is a poor choice when it is empty.
