I have a sapui5 app that I'm trying to test on mobile Safari using remote web inspector. Since it loads javascript files dynamically (uses MVC), it only lists these files under XHR. Apparently, because it's XHR, I can't add a breakpoint to these files.
Is there any way for me to debug this? Or force web inspector to load these files some place else? It seems a bit useless otherwise.
I have the latest version of iOS and Safari on my iPad.
I know this question has been asked previously but nobody answered it. So I'm hoping this one will gain a bit more traction.
Thanks!

Just like in Chrome Developer Tool, I was wondering if there is any tool/extension/plugin which would allow me to export timeline data in Safari. I tried the nightly build of webkit but it does not have that feature. Seems like this is a Chrome specific functionality.
I have to use Safari because I am testing a webapp on iPhone.
I searched around for any hints but could not get any. As of now I am thinking of two options to get the timeline information:
Build a Safari extension
Get Chrome Dev Tool's timeline code and build my own version of webkit (if that's even possible!)
Any guides/insights would be highly appreciated!
Update 1: I downloaded Webkit and found out that it supports remote iPhone debugging through USB. Probably I can find the code for web inspector for Webkit and use that code to export the timeline data.
Safari's Web inspector does use the WebKit remote debugging protocol.
However, Safari does not use TCP/HTTP as a transport layer, thus
making it incompatible with Chrome. source
Thankfully, someone from Google wrote a proxy allowing to overcome this limitation.
Folks:
I'm creating an app using Node Webkit. The purpose of this app is to display images and pdfs. The app needs to download those files from a central repository, and cache them locally. When the app runs offline, the files should still be available, and displayed.
On the face of it, this sounds like appcache is the answer - and that indeed is where I was heading when this was a pure webapp in a browser. However, now I've discovered node-webkit, and here we are.
node-webkit's GitHub wiki states:
"However, application cache is designed for browser use, for apps using node-webkit, it's less useful than the other two method, read HTML5 Application Cache if you want to use it."
But doesn't say why.
I've also researched node.js filesystem - but that seems like a whole magnitude of complexity above what I need.
Can anyone point me in a sensible direction?
Thanks.
It has to do with the nature of App Cache itself.
You specify a manifest file that lists all the static assets required for your app to run offline. You don't have any programmatic access to the cache to add and remove files via JS.
So for a node-webkit app, it'd make more sense to fetch these files and store them in the Application Support folder (Or AppData, depending on the platform). That's where the node.js part is really useful, the file IO stuff.
I have a project that loads http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/dojo/1.3.2/dojo/dojo.xd.js, I want to be able use this project offline
I tried to download dojo.xd.js and link to it locally but this still doesn't work offline
In firebug, on the net tab I can see that there are a lot more .js files that load
Is there a simple way of making this work offline?
The way of integration depends on your way of using it.
I assume you have webserver running locally (without inet access)?!
At the dojo website there are several ways of dojo integration available. Just download one of them (do not use CDN) and put the file on your local web server. Then it is available through the local url (can be relative to your site).
If you wan't to build an "offline" app without a webserver then take a look at Adobe AIR and interation of the dojo toolkit with Dojo Extensions for Adobe AIR.
Another option might be the integration together with PhoneGap or Cordova to build an offline App, e.g. for an IPhone etc. with HTML/Javascript. Win8/RT Applications for the M$ AppStore does support HTML/Javascript, too (have not tested this with Dojo).
Keep in mind there are also some security restrictions (e.g. loading and execution of JavaScript) if you plan to "release" your app as simple html file (click to open in browser).
I am part of the developer team for a quite a large online system using ASP.NET(4).
Asp.net Ajax completely breaks down for Webkit browsers and we are getting full page postbacks when we should be getting partial only for the UpdatePanels.
I am starting to believe it has something to do with my Application Configuration, mainly for the following reasons.
If I move the ajax enabled controls to a new project they will work as expected for all browsers, including Webkit.
I created a static .aspx file with nothing but an UpdatePanel,ScriptManager and a button making a literal visible on click.
I get no Javascript errors from any browser, and i see an http request for the asp.net-ajax (ScriptResource.axd) in both Firebug and Chrome Developer tools
I tried ye'old safari fix from this highly referenced thread
Edit: After a bit more testing and http sniffing i noticed a major difference between the test application and the actual application. The test application generates 2 additional .axd files which are not generated from the actual application. These WebResource.axd, seem to contain data related to the async postback. However this is only the case for Webkit browsers. The WebResource.axd files are generated for Firefox as i can see them in firebug
What i am asking from the community, is any ideas or suggestions as to what could be the cause of this problem and if i am correct to assume that the problem is probably on the server side
Thanks for any help
The problem was due to a deprecated config file that's used to limit the content that bots/spiders/crawlers receive, which was loading by mistake thanks to our lovely inhouse CMS
In short if u get behavior similar to my case, check your or configs
I was having a similar issue however my problem was with all browsers and not just webkit. I ended up going through and tearing up the web.config file and found out that a line: <xhtmlConformance mode="Legacy"> was preventing webresource.axd from working properly. The fix was to simply remove that line from my web.config file.
For a little more information on xhtmlConformance, visit http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/librarY/ms228268(v=vs.85).aspx.
If you scroll all the way to the bottom you'll notice it explicitly states that it causes issues with webresource.axd and scriptresource.axd.
I have some quite nasty issue I couldn't solve so far.
Whenever I do installation of Symbian application on Nokia platform, the browser loads blank HTML page, and needs to be closed manually.
It doesn't happens on WAP push installations - only on direct link installations via the browser.
It happens on installations both from JAD and JAR.
I tried specifying manifest entries, etc... - nothing helped.
Any idea how to prevent this blank page, as it confusing the users?
Thanks in advance.
You should make sure that the content types of the downloaded files are correct:
For .jad, the content type should be text/vnd.sun.j2me.app-descriptor
For .jar, the content type should be application/java-archive
Setting the content type according to a file's extension is usually something you configure in your HTTP server.
