1206061 - Display message in Params and Response tabs in case request and response body logging is turned off

Status: NEW

(DevTools :: Netmonitor, defect, P3)

Description

[Sebastian Zartner [:sebo]]

When 'Log Request and Response Bodies' is unchecked, the Params tab says 'No parameters for this request' and the Response tab stays completely empty.

This is confusing for people, because the info in the Params tab is wrong. And providing no info in the Response tab may lead people to think there was no response.

So both tabs should show a message like this:

Request/Response body logging is turned off. You may [ Turn it on ] now.

Where "Turn it on" is a button allowing the user to enable the logging.

Need to clarify the steps:

1. Open the toolbox at the Console panel (Ctrl+Shift+K)
2. Make sure 'Log Request and Response Bodies' is turned off
3. Reload the page
4. Switch to the Network panel

5. Click on a request
6. Click on 'Params' / 'Response'
