It is possible to load or even create new stylesheets after the document has loaded, via javascript.
This means that, while a node is selected in the markup-view and its styles are shown on the side panel in the rule-view, these styles may change.
The markup-view already listens to markup mutations today in order to react to changes in the DOM tree. A similar sort of mechanism is therefore needed in the rule-view (and computed-view).
Here's how a new style may be added:
> var sheet = document.createElement("STYLE");
> sheet.id = "new-style-sheet";
> sheet.type = "text/css";
> sheet.appendChild(document.createTextNode("div {display:none;}"));
> document.getElementsByTagName("HEAD")[0].appendChild(sheet);

So, essentially, we should refresh any of the rule, computed, font and layout views when: - a new stylesheet is appended to the document (a new <style> tag or <link> tag) - an existing stylesheet's content is changed I think a MutationObserver should work for this and we already have one in the inspector actor, unless there is another event or platform API we could use for this. Paul? Any idea for this?

Changes to the existing text of a style sheet, e.g. myStyleElement.textContent = "...", should result in a StyleSheetRemoved event followed by a StyleSheetAdded event. Is that sufficient, or do you need to track that they are due to a change?

I'm working on a patch that I will very soon be attaching for review. That patch will do the following: - listen to StyleSheetAdded/Removed events at PageStyleActor level - use these events to send protocol events down to the client - listen to these protocol events at style inspector (rule + computed views), font inspector, layout view levels - use these events to refresh the views The next obvious candidate would be the style editor, but this will be done in a follow-up bug as it has some dependencies. Another candidate related to this is synchronizing changes between the style inspector and style editor (in both directions), but this is probably a bigger change too, so while I'll investigate this here, I'll probably file another bug.

If I remember correctly, memory leaks can be detected in debug builds but not in normal builds, that's why only debug builds fail here.
I think the reason is that I've added a couple of event listeners in the style actor:
> let browser = this.inspector.tabActor.browser;
> browser.addEventListener("StyleSheetAdded", this._onStyleSheetAdded, true);
> browser.addEventListener("StyleSheetRemoved", this._onStyleSheetRemoved, true);
And these listeners are being removed when the style actor gets destroyed.
I'm guessing that when we run bc tests, many of them are ended in a way that actors don't get destroyed properly, hence the listeners never get removed.

Could be - I would build in debug mode and check on that test locally. Hopefully it will be reproducible and you can narrow it down to a particular line. If you can't reproduce it locally you could always add logging when the handlers are removed and push to try to see if the remove handlers are being fired.

V2 of this patch changes the following things: - gets rid of the memory leak detected during debug builds - refactors the way the stylesheet-added/removed events are added when a new-root mutation occurs - fixed a number of tests that were dynamically adding stylesheets to the content doc, therefore triggering the stylesheet-added event and refreshing the rule view before the test started

Thanks Brian, I'm working on the various things you highlighted and will reply soon. The main problems the previous patch has is that it won't work with documents nested in frames and on FirefoxOS. Both problems are, I think, related and linked to the fact that I used the `this.inspector.tabActor.browser` object to list to the StyleSheet[Added|Removed] events. @Cameron: The only javascript usage occurence of these events I could find is in this test: http://mxr.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/source/browser/base/content/test/general/browser_bug839103.js#10 It suggests the events should be listened to on the gBrowser object. This doesn't seem like something we can do on FirefoxOS. Also, is there a way to get notified of these events even in children frames?

Actually, I remember now. Adding a property, now that we have server-side events for when stylesheets get changed, will end up refreshing the rule-view, so we need to wait until that occurs before going on with the test.
However, I can replace the nasty executeSoon with a better inspector.once("rule-view.refreshed", ...) event listener instead.

I haven't worked with the style sheet events myself, but it looks like they get dispatched to the document itself, based on the code in nsDocument.cpp, and presumably they then bubble up to the browser element? An alternative would be to register an nsIDocumentObserver, which has the same style related notification callbacks.

Which you register on the document object with nsIDocument::AddObserver. For the events, note that you need to set |doc.styleSheetChangeEventsEnabled = true| to get the style sheet events dispatching and that that property (and the events) are chrome only.

Here's a new take on this bug. The implementation differs from the last patch: - now, a new server method is available to start watching stylesheet changes in a particular document - this is now used by the inspector-panel to start watching changes in the document of the currently selected node - once watching, the PageStyle actor sends events to the client when stylesheets change in the corresponding document This make it work on sites that have iframes. Also, the server-side code doesn't use the browser object anymore but instead the document and window, making it compatible with FxOS.

That's interesting, I just checked and indeed, the PageStyleActor has the lifetime of the InspectorActor, which isn't that of a given page since it's global. So it means my change will end up adding and adding documents to observe until the devtools server is stopped. I was originally thinking that this actor would be destroyed/re-instantiated at each page load. I guess it never needed too since it's not storing any information.

Now the PageStyleActor listens to the walker's ProgressListener's frame unload event in order to clean up the stylesheet events. There was also a bug in the rule-view whereby quickly calling several times the nodeChanged function would end up in a messed-up display with old rules still there. I added a simplistic queue (which isn't one, really just a flag telling if a refresh should be done after the current one is completed) that fixes this.

So, yes, a trait would work, but somehow it makes me sad to have to introduce another one. It feels like it'd be better directly asking protocol.js if a particular actor method exists or not. Another way that I'll try now is not asking the client to call watchStyleSheetChanges but keep everything server-side, so that we can be back to only sending events, which is better for compatibility. > ::: toolkit/devtools/server/actors/inspector.js > @@ +1836,5 @@ > > this.queueMutation({ > > type: "newRoot", > > target: this.rootNode.form() > > }); > > + events.emit(this, "root-frame-load"); > > root-frame-load and root-frame-unload don't seem to be used.

So, here's a new take again on this bug. I think this is the right way of doing this now. There's now no need for the client to ask for watching nodes, so it's backward compatible since it's only based on events. What happens now is that the PageStyleActor listens to frame load and unload events to start and stop watching stylesheet changes in them. It also looks at all existing windows when it initializes and remove all remaining windows when it gets destroyed. This way, we're sure to always watch all stylesheet changes we actually care about, and only these ones. This will make it possible to later implement bug 911209 to show display:none nodes differently in the markup-view (no matter which frames they're in). Indeed, up until my v6 patch, only those frames which we selected elements in would have been watched. There's one remaining point though: the inspector sidebar panels will get refreshed even if stylesheets are added in other frames. We might want to discuss whether this is an important problem or not. I don't have any idea yet on how to filter these events. We could send the target document along with the event, but that would require the client to get the document for the currently selected node to compare. We could also send some stylesheet identifier with the event, so that the rule-view can compare, but this would be useless for the computed/font/layout view. Any ideas welcome. Finally, I fixed the browser_ruleview_multiple_properties.js test which was failing because of the simple queuing mechanism I implemented in rule-view. For some reason, it turns out a "layout-change" event is thrown during that test and that triggered a nodeChanged execution during the refresh of the rule-view.

Tests in the try builds seem to pass fine, however I must have introduced a leak in the PageStyleActor cause all debug build report at least 1 leaked docshell. I'll take a look at this next.

Comment on attachment 8363564 [details] [diff] [review] bug922146-refresh-ruleview-on-new-stylesheet V7.patch I forgot this review request was still there. I'm cancelling it for now because: - the code introduces a leak (detected in debug try builds) - the browser toolbox seems to fail with the patch (getting the debuggee's window chromeEventHandler returns undefined) - I'd like to progress on https://gist.github.com/captainbrosset/8834705 first before doing this change.

Hi Cameron, These stylesheetadded/removed events are working great so far and will help the devtools quite a lot. However, I was wondering if there are events being fired when the CSSOM is changed. Indeed, in the devtools, we would also need to react when some content javascript does e.g. document.styleSheets[0].cssRules[0].setProperty("color", "blue"); The CSSOM spec doesn't define any events. Do we already have something in place similar to how stylesheetadded/removed work? For info, if you change the CSSOM via node.style, then our tools do show the changes, but that's only because it triggers a DOM node attribute mutation and we listen to this today.
