How to Inspect Element using Safari Browser - safari

I am developing websites and creating applications. I want to know how to inspect an element through web browsers like safari.
In normal Chrome, Firefox, Explorer or any other browsers, we will right click the mouse button or press Function Key F12 to view the Inspect Element. But it is not happening in the case of safari browser.
Share your thoughts!

In your Safari menu bar click Safari > Preferences & then select the Advanced tab.
Select: "Show Develop menu in menu bar"
Now you can click Develop in your menu bar and choose Show Web Inspector
See the detailed guide here for more info:

You can also right-click and press "Inspect element".
EDIT
As suggested by #dennis in the comments: If you dont see "Show Develop menu in menu bar" you may need to run DevToolsSecurity -enable in the console before the option is visible

Press CMD + , than click in show develop menu in menu bar. After that click Option + CMD + i to open and close the inspector

in menu bar click on Edit->preference->advance at bottom click the check box true that is for Show develop menu in menu bar now a develop menu is display at menu bar where you can see all develop option and inspect.

ShadowRoot handling in Safari

When I put a focusable element in the shadow DOM, OSX Safari doesn't include it in the tab sequence (unlike all other browsers). The button is visible, clickable but not accessible for keyboard users. Is this a known bug? Is there a way to handle it besides making the component tabbable and forwarding focus (which seems kind of gross)?
Here's what a minimal example looks like in Safari's console
<div class="host">
Shadow Content (Open)
<button>Click me</button>
</div>
I created this example by calling .attachShadow({"mode": "open"}) on div.host then setting its .shadowRoot.innerHTML to "<button>Click me</button>"
I'm having this issue in components I created. I tested the example above in Chrome and the button is included in the tab sequence as expected.
Safari doesn't enable tab navigation by default, it must be enabled via preferences.
Tab highlights the next text field or pop-up menu. Tab also highlights
buttons and other controls if “All controls” is selected in the
Shortcuts pane of the Keyboard pane of System Preferences.
Option-Tab highlights the same items as Tab plus all other clickable
items.
To swap the behavior of Tab and Option-Tab, turn on “Press Tab to
highlight each item on a webpage” in the Advanced pane of Safari
preferences.

How I can inspect the elements that appear while mouse click, disappear while mouse leave

I want to inspect the YouTube settings menu element in chrome-developer with c# selenium.
The YouTube settings menu element appears on mouse click, but disappears if the mouse is moved out, so I cannot inspect the element in chrome-developer.
Any ideas?
ctrl+shift+i, then try the "Sources" tab, then go to the file you're trying to debug, then add line breakers. Next refresh the page. Here's an image of what we're looking for, inspected the google.com page for this one.
Once you have reached the line break for the mouseclick on the debugging, you can go to the elements tab, it should have the elements currently paused on the screen.
Visual studio and Chrome Browser as half of the Width of window
Breakpoint after click
At chrome browser, press F12 for inspect
We can find the settings dialog element in inspect tools area.
We must not click the html body area(Red Area) while debugging.

View HTTP headers in Safari

In Safari 10 web browser on Mac OS X Sierra and with the Web Inspector turned on, I go visit a public website such as google.com.
How does one view HTTP headers in Safari on macOS?
(Putting the full solution here so people who haven't got as far as enabling the web inspector will see it.)
First ensure that the Develop menu is enabled: in the Advanced pane in Safari Preferences (Cmd + ,) select "Show Develop menu in menu bar".
Then, from the Develop menu select Show Page Resources (Cmd + Alt + A). Then, in the top right corner of the view, just under the tab bar, there is a button to "Show the details sidebar" (Cmd + Alt + 0). Click it.
Then you can select each resource from the left sidebar and the headers will appear in the right sidebar. You may need to refresh the page to see them initially.

Launch path/url with "Choose Application" dialog

If you right click on an item, then hover over "Open With", then you see "Other". Clicking that shows a dialog, which lists the "recommended applications" (which were seen in the first "open with" context menu) and now it shows some others too. Image is below.
Is there a way i can launch a path/url into this dialog? If url then it offers firefox, and safari, etc.
I saw this was possible on iOS but I can't find the desktop equivalent: How do I create an Open With Dialog in iOS?

Safari Web Inspector Showing Up In New Window By Default

I've been using Chrome and am going back and forth between switching to Safari or staying with Chrome. My one small issue with Safari though is that the web inspector always shows up in a new window every time I toggle it. I press Command-Option-I and it opens in a new window and when I press Command-Option-I again it does not go away. I love the way the web inspector functions in Chrome and am wondering if there's a way to run the same way in Safari.
Any thoughts are greatly appreciated. Thanks!
I have had the issue for a long time. Here is the solution.
Right-click on a web page and select inspect element.
The console window appears in Fullscreen. Minimize the window like any Safari web page and it should a window like below.
Just above the 'Elements' tab, you should be able to see 2 icons. Clicking the icon on the left, opens the Console in right side of the browser and clicking the icon on the right, opens the Console in bottom of the browser
Hope this helps.
None of the methods upon are working for me (Safari 9.1), if you want to make the docking buttons of the inspector showing up:
open Terminal
type defaults read com.apple.Safari "__WebInspectorPageGroupLevel1__.WebKit2InspectorStartsAttached"
Once you checked if it returns 0,
do:
defaults write com.apple.Safari "__WebInspectorPageGroupLevel1__.WebKit2InspectorStartsAttached" 1
It's a bug in the Safari codebase.
Here is the bugreport and they're working on it (source)!
You could press the leftmost button at the Inspector's status bar and Inspector will dock.
UPDATE: Now, the button is on the right. When Inspector is in a separate window, the two small buttons in its upper right corner make it move to the 1) bottom of the Safari window 2) right side of the Safari window.
The only method that seemed to work for me was to resize the browser to a big enough size that it was big enough to contain the smallest size of an individual Inspect window. This for me, was widening the browser to at least around 65% percent width of the screen, and then you can "Inspect Element" and the default would be that the Inspect window would be at the bottom of the browser, and the browser with the Inspect window in it is resizable to any size now. Hope this helps some people.
Follow these steps to fix safari issue
Go to Develop --> User Agent --> Safari --> Select iphone --> then click on right side top symbol...
Select it and do inspect then you can see the button on left side top corner.
Now set to default setting by redoing the first point.
Please follow the step
Try clicking as shown:
I hope you get as shown:
I noticed when you have an open tab like the start page, the web inspector will pop up in a separate window. Also, there are no icons in the web inspector to attach it to the bottom or side. If you have a webpage open and do the same thing in the same window, that tab will have the web inspector attached to the bottom of the page (or whatever your attachment selection was prior).
