Issue with "Network request details": (short summary here please)

moshedolev commented 3 years ago

MDN URL: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Tools/Network_Monitor/request_details

What information was incorrect, unhelpful, or incomplete?

The screen shot in the section "Network request details" demonstrates the problem perfectly. It has the tabs: Headers Cookies Request Response Timings Security

NOTE: There is no "Params" tab in the screenshot. In the explanations it says that there is a "Params" tab, and explains what it does. I need this tab. It is missing in my Firefox too.

Specific section or headline?

Network request details

What did you expect to see?

The "Params" tab. It is missing in the screenshot and in my firefox too.

Did you test this? If so, how?

Yes. The problem appears in my firefos too. Version 88.0.1 (64-bit) win10.

Thanks for catching this and reporting it. I’ve opened https://github.com/mdn/content/pull/5484 with a fix (and after that change is merged, this issue will automatically get closed).

Note that the request and response tabs now show all the parameters, so you don't need this tab

moshedolev commented 3 years ago

Yes, but in POST requests, the request tab contains only the raw payload like this:

-----------------------------8429949821708741512766920304 Content-Disposition: form-data; name="discount_start_date"

29/05/2021 -----------------------------8429949821708741512766920304 Content-Disposition: form-data; name="discount_due_date"

05/01/2022 -----------------------------8429949821708741512766920304 Content-Disposition: form-data; name="discount_desc"

21.5 -----------------------------8429949821708741512766920304 Content-Disposition: form-data; name="discount_start_date_to_add"

This is inconvenient to work with. I would expect to see something like:

Param1: Value1 Param2: Value2 Param3: Value3 ...

It was like that in the good old firebug addon. I really miss it. If you can bring this format back, I would be very grateful.

Thanks so much,

Moshe Dolev
