Status: VERIFIED FIXED

(SeaMonkey :: Page Info, enhancement, P2)

Description

The Page Info requires files that are linked to in the header. For example, CSS
and Javascript files.

Using this tag:
<link rel="STYLESHEET" type="text/css" href="file.css">

Brian Bober, I'm not sure what the problem is here. Can you please explain it
more thoroughly, give some steps to reproduce it, a description of the buggy
behavior and a description of the expected behavior.  Thanks.

moving to XP GUI, as I see that se has filed page info bugs to it.

basically, the reporter asks that files that are linked to (such as css files or
js files) should be shown in page info

You'll need to download these attachments to view the HTML page. Place them both 
in the same directory. Page info under the view menu.

adding this to the page info dependency tree.

See also bug 11520, which would either make this a view menu item or part of 
page info (at least for stylesheets).

Brian, exactly what information do you think needs to be shown in order to fix
this bug? Would it be satisfactory to just list the url and what kind of link it
is (external stylesheet vs other LINK types, etc)? Have you checked out
http://critique.net.nz/project/mozilla/general/component/info/, which is
probably the formost proposal on Page Info stuff? What about my own
modifications to this at http://db48x.hypermart.net/pageinfo/?

Basically, I'd like to know if there was any particular info you were looking
for, so I can fix it. :)

If the URLS are linked (hint!) then I think there isn't a need for more info
about javascript/css files since they can be seem by clicking on them (on a
separate window?).

Comment 11

[Brian 'netdragon' Bober]

I don't understand what you are saying.

Comment 12

[Agustín Fernández]

I think that if the URLS are linked then it would it be satisfactory to just
list the url and what kind of link it is (external stylesheet vs other LINK
types, etc). Because then you can click on the links and see the files on a
(new?) browser window.

For things like javascript, that won't work. Javascript is stored in .js files 
and js files will try to run in the browser. For things like html links it will 
work but for .js files and.css files? It might be necessary to load them into 
an empty window or some type of text viewer.

Comment 14

can we show links as:
<a href="view-source:url">source:</a> <a href="url">url</a>
[or some intl variation]

fwiw, js files will probably not run if loaded in a web browser.

Daniel, do you want to look into this?  If not, feel free to reassign back.

Comment 16

[Daniel Brooks [:db48x]]

I like timeless' suggestion, I think that it's the easiest way to go about it.

Comment 17

[Daniel Brooks [:db48x]]

ah, the joy of a shortened release cycle.

52730 is targetted to 0.9.3 and this will be fixed by it.  Is it really
necessary that this remain targetted to .9.3 as well (especially given the
seeming likelihood that 52730 isn't getting checked in before tonight's freeze)?

The original description of this bug lists that not only CSS files should show 
up in the Page Info, but also JavaScript (js) files.  Currently this patch does 
not View JavaScript files.  Goto any page which has a JavaScript SRC SCRIPT 
block and they do not show up in the current Page Info dialog.

So will that not be implemented?
