>>> My Info: Win7_64, Nightly 49, 32bit, ID 20160511030221 STR_1: 1. Open data:text/html,<style>body{background:url(about:logo) no-repeat} 2. Open devtools in separate window, close devtools 3. Open inspector, select <body>, open ruleview, hover mouse over string "about:logo" in ruleview 4. Click first time to hide tooltip (see bug 1201831) 5. Click to open url in a new tab AR: No visible action ER: Url should open in a new tab, just like in devtools docked to the bottom side of window
No longer blocks: 1277113
Component: Untriaged → Developer Tools: CSS Rules Inspector
Basically, if devtools started in a separate window, links from the rule view do not open. The issue comes from text-property-editor http://searchfox.org/mozilla-central/source/devtools/client/inspector/rules/views/text-property-editor.js#277 The text-property-editor tries to open the URL in this.browserWindow which is initialized to this.doc.defaultView.top in the panel init. In case of devtools opened in a separate window, this will point to the devtools window. Compared to the computed view implementation: > let browserWin = this.inspector.target.tab.ownerDocument.defaultView; > browserWin.openUILinkIn(target.href, "tab"); which always gets the correct window. The fix should be pretty simple to implement, but adding a test would be nice here.

Hi, I'd like to work on this bug.
Thanks Michael! Assigning the bug to you! For the test, we need to: - configure the devtools to open in a separate window - open devtools for the test page [1] - select body - click on the link - check that a new tab was opened on the expected URL I'll try to find some reference tests to look at to implement this. [1] We can't really use about:logo as a url for the test here. Let's use the following test url (the base64 png is a 1px black square): data:text/html,<style>body{background:url(data:image/png;base64,iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUgAAAAEAAAABCAYAAAAfFcSJAAAADUlEQVQImWNgYGD4DwABBAEAfbLI3wAAAABJRU5ErkJggg==) no-repeat}

Thanks Julian! I looked at some existing tests and wrote a new one based on that, and used the code that you mentioned in order to fix the bug.

Great! I've uploaded a new patch with the nits addressed. I believe I do have commit access to try, but it seems to have been disabled due to inactivity. I just created a request, Bug 1346596, to restore access :-)

This bug is found in my system also when the background URL is opened while the Dev tools were opened in the window.which makes us very difficult to use the page's Dev tools and css elements of that particular page. which makes it so difficult when the developers are using it.This error is repeated rarely.
Should we uplift this? Looks like it was reported in 49?

Comment on attachment 8846351 [details] [diff] [review] bug1326626-2.patch Approval Request Comment [Feature/Bug causing the regression]: N/A, old bug which was reported only recently [User impact if declined]: devtools users can not open image links from some devtools panels, if devtools is open in separate window. [Is this code covered by automated tests?]: yes, added in this changeset [Has the fix been verified in Nightly?]: no [Needs manual test from QE? If yes, steps to reproduce]: already covered by automated tests, so I would say no here (otherwise STRs from the summary can be used) [List of other uplifts needed for the feature/fix]: none [Is the change risky?]: no [Why is the change risky/not risky?]: simple JS change, which is just reusing the same approach as in another panel [String changes made/needed]: none I tried grafting the changeset from central on aurora: it applies cleanly, test still passes.
