1650107 - Pressing F1 on CSS property leads to 404 page

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(DevTools :: Inspector, defect, P1)

Description

[mbudde]

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:79.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/79.0

Steps to reproduce:

Press F1 on the 'will-change' property in the 'Computed' tab in the Inspector.

Actual results:

DevTools opens the URL 'https://developer.mozilla.org/CSS/will-change' which currently gives a 404 error page.

For most CSS properties there are redirects set up on MDN, e.g. https://developer.mozilla.org/CSS/background redirects to https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/CSS/background.

Newer properties do not seem to have such redirects set up. Examples: 'will-change', 'line-break', 'justify-self', 'justify-items'.

Expected results:

I would expect DevTools to open the URL 'https://developer.mozilla.org/docs/Web/CSS/will-change'.

The URL is specified here in the code: https://github.com/mozilla/gecko-dev/blob/c350ad5bd6718e368dccba0e559493cb7d8e8230/devtools/client/inspector/computed/computed.js#L936

The URL I would expect is used other places in the code, for instance here: https://github.com/mozilla/gecko-dev/blob/5c78a8e3de57fac8b966eabee4bbbbecceb89e90/devtools/client/shared/widgets/tooltip/inactive-css-tooltip-helper.js#L86
