Web Inspector- Resources should show parameters and response

• Component: Web Inspector (Deprecated)
• Status: RESOLVED INVALID

[David Van der Voort]

While using Safari 4, in the Web Inspector, resources view, on this page I would like to see the response received. For example, looking at the call to channels.ashx, the response is XML but it does not show in the Web Inspector panel. Regarding parameters, it would be nice to have those displayed as well. These features can be seen in Firebug for Firefox and an example of the desired result can been seen using that tool on the same page.

Definitely would be nice.  With this, I could completely rid myself of Firebug.

The Resources pane lets you see responses. Is that what you had in mind?

[David Van der Voort]

Yes. I should have been clearer.

At this link:

In the Web Inspector,
In the Resources view,
With the file channels.ashx selected,
In the response panel
Expected:
The raw text of the response should be visible.

Actual:
The content of the response is not visible.

It would be nice to see the response content in that panel.

* It would also be nice to see any request parameters passed appear at the top of this panel with Request and Response Headers.

Reason: It is valuable to know all of this information in one place when you have a page that dynamically generates and returns server side XML based on request parameters.

Closing as invalid, as this bug pertains to the old inspector UI and/or its tests.
Please file a new bug (https://www.webkit.org/new-inspector-bug) if the bug/feature/issue is still relevant to WebKit trunk.
