Description cirnelle 2014-08-06 12:01:52 UTC 
The 'CSS style window' is empty when using the 'inspect in netbeans mode' in Chrome netbeans connector. All three 'property', 'applied styles' and 'rules' windows do not show anything. 

STEPS TO REPRODUCE:

1. create HTML project
2. create CSS stylesheet
3. save and run project in Chrome using Chrome netbeans connector
4. Click on netbeans icon in Chrome and select 'inspect in netbeans mode'
5. Select an element to be inspected.
6. Examine the 'CSS style windows' in netbeans IDE.

EXPECTED RESULTS:

CSS style windows shows the applied styles to the element

BUG:

CSS style windows are empty. 

Note: when using 'embedded webkit browser' to inspect elements, the css style window correctly shows the applied styles.

Which version of Chrome do you have? There are some changes in Chrome 37 which break these features. Please attach here IDE log (see [1]) from moment when the CSS Styles window is empty and it shouldn't be. I think this is the same problem as in issue 245137.

You can try daily build from [2] where these problems are fixed (fixes will be part of NetBeans 8.0.1)

Closing as incomplete for now, please attach here IDE log and Chrome version. Thank you

Thank you so much Vladimir! 

I am using Chrome Version 36.0.1985.125 m.

I just tried the nightly built version and the Chrome netbeans connector seems to be working fine now. Thanks for your brilliant help!

ps: I uninstalled netbeans (to install the dev version) before i could copy the log file, oops. I'll see if I could retrieve it and will copy the log here when I do.
Comment 3 Vladimir Riha 2014-08-07 11:56:37 UTC 
Thank you for confirmation, I'm glad it works for you. No need to look for the ide log. NetBeans 8.0.1 should be out in few weeks and it will contain this fix.
