1123609 - local storage value is not displayed in development/storage/host

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 1049888

(DevTools :: Storage Inspector, defect)

Description

[jip]

Attachment: localStorage-display.png

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10.9; rv:35.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/35.0
Build ID: 20150108202552

Steps to reproduce:

Go to https://mozilla.org , open development view, go to storage tab, local storage view, https://mozilla.org . Then type into the console:
localStorage['optimizely_data']
localStorage.a = 'b'
localStorage


Actual results:

The results in the console are correct, but not in the local view (no value for 'a' key). See attachment.

Moreover, if you exit the development environment, and enter it again, the 'a' key is not there any more, but still correct in the console.

This is an example using the debugger, but the same problem occurred to me on a simple web page also.


Expected results:

correct display of the value, which is 'b'.

This test case works correctly for me in Nightly 42.  The storage inspector was heavily rewritten in 41, so that likely fixed this issue.

Dev. Ed will update to 41 around this Friday, or you can try Nightly today.
