Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 1526082

(DevTools :: Debugger, defect, P3)

Description

[arni2033]

>>>   My Info:   Win7_64, Nightly 49, 32bit, ID 20160526082509
STR_1:  (original)
1. Open url http://ckeditor.com/demo
2. Open devtools -> debugger
3. Inspect the frame with the demo (it has "paste" event handler)
4. Switch to that frame (it's one of about:blank), open debugger

AR:  Step 2 - no "paste" event handler.  Step 4 - no "paste" event handler
ER:  There should be a way to debug "paste" event handler!!! E.g. in Step 4 debugger should display it


STR_2:  (testcase)
1. Open url [1]
2. Open devtools -> debugger
3. Inspect the frame with the demo (it has "click" event handler)
4. Switch to that frame (it's one of about:blank), open debugger

AR:  Step 2 - no "click" event handler.  Step 4 - no "click" event handler
ER:  There should be a way to debug "click" event handler!!! E.g. in Step 4 debugger should display it

> [1] data:text/html,<iframe></iframe><script src='data:text/javascript,I=document.querySelector("iframe");setTimeout(function(){var W = I.contentWindow;W.onclick=function(){console.log(Date.now())};},1000);//.js'></script>

Thanks Arni, I verified it in this very similar example as well.

We haven't gotten around to shipping "Event Listeners" in the new UI yet, but we have a work in progress version. We'll address this server side issue when we get around to shipping it then.

The new Events panel will address this use case.
