Unknown issue with http(s) tab / DebugBar forums

Yeah I don't know how or what this is due to, but here's what happens.

When you open a Google Maps (just go to maps.google.com) and move the map around, the http(s) tab will show repetitive calls for a cursor image from google. However, when checking http packets with Fiddler, they don't show up. Google seems to agree, as you can see here: http://code.google.com/p/gmaps-api-issu … %20ApiType

I'm using IE7 with just the debugbar and Companion.JS addons.

Am I missinterpreting the data?

Hi,

DebugBar is working correctly on this case ! The fact is that requests are made for the cursor image, but IE is getting its data from the cache, so it is not hitting the server at all. You can see that on the DebugBar because the line is grayed. Grayed entry means that IE got the info from its cache. Colored entry means IE got a "Not Modified" request from the server (that means, IE is asking the server, and than getting the info from its cache). Black entry means IE gets the info from the cache.

So in this case, IE is getting its info totally from the cache, that is why you don't see in under fiddler.

(I know I have to add documentation on the wiki for the http tab.... Sorry for that not being up to date)

Hope this helps.

Ah, that clears it up I figured it had to be something like that. Thanks
