Bug 149213 – Selected Tab in Web Inspector should stay selected between reloads and navigating pages

• Status: RESOLVED
• Resolution: DUPLICATE
• Component: Web Inspector

[Stefan Seiz]

Current behavior:
If you reload a page or visit a new URL, the "Resources"-Tab will always be selected by default.

Desired behavior:
Once i select one of the tabs in Web Inspector, this tab should stay the selected tab if i reload the page or even change to a different url.
I.e. if i had selected the "Console" Tab, the Web Inspector is shown and i reload the page, the "Console"-Tab should still be selected.

Hi,

I cannot reproduce with WebKit nightly. Can you send a video and report what version of Safari/Webkit you are using?

Hi Brian,

I'll attached a video (webkit-inspector-tabs.mov) showcasing the behavior.

This should be fixed in the nightly and 10.11.2.

I can confirm it's fixed in Safari 9.0.2 on 10.11.2. 
Finally the Web-Inspector is usable again. Thank you so much!
