I have been playing around with the "WCF Rest Service Template CS (40)" template in VS 2010. For some reason, I am seeing different behaviors when browsing the service between IE9 and IE8.
In IE8, going to, say, http://localhost:port/Service1/ will display the expected XML response with a list of items.
However, in IE9, all I see is a blank page. But, when I View Source, I can see the message there. Does anyone know what I need to change, configuration-wise, in IE9 to make it display the response properly in the browser window? I have been searching all over, in the IE9 forums, WCF, these forums, etc.
Thanks,
Matt
Open IE -> Internet Options -> Content -> Feeds & Web Slices -> Clear the "Turn on feed reading view".

How to search through all the ajax responses in network tab in Chrome?
I want to do this is because it is difficult for a JavaScript developer to get to know which information is coming from which service call, especially if you are new to the project and business logic is not clear. Also, opening each service in a network tab and searching in responses of so many service calls is difficult and time consuming.
This has now been implemented on the Network tab. Whenever a search criteria is added, Chrome will offer searching through all headers and bodies.
More from offical doc,
Open the Network panel then press Command+F (Mac) or Control+F (Windows, Linux, Chrome OS) to open the new Network Search pane.
This is similar to another question this morning to search json responses. The solution is the same, star this issue this issue. Starring is triggered via the star icon in the far left area of the blue title are just under search.
Starring issues let's the developers know what people need. The more stars something has, the more likely it is to get worked on sooner.
Currently this functionality is not provided and extensions are unable to add this type of functionality since the network panel isn't extensible in this way.
In Firefox you can save all the responses as a HAR file and then search through the file in a text editor (Chrome truncates the responses).
Inspector of Microsoft Edge browser offer such feature. Useful when you need to search through traffic made by an HTTPS web site that Fiddler cannot inspect (like Facebook web site).
There doesn't seem to be a way to do this in Chrome or Firefox. My solution has been to use Fiddler, which does support it.
Edit: I believe this was working for all resources at the time of writing, but please see comments because people say it is not/no-longer working as expected.
As of Chrome version 91, if you want to search through all resources (not just AJAX/fetched resources), then you need to open DevTools and then press Ctrl+Shift+F to open a search box. If you just type into the "filter" text input then it only searches through the URLs, rather than also searching the contents.
I have already checked out this question, and it sounds like he's describing the same exact problem as me except for a few things:
I'm not running on https
80% of the time I try to debug, I get this message " Error parsing input URL, no data was scraped."
The scraper works perfectly on a different domain, but same server, same theme with almost identical content. Every time I try a domain it scrapes it perfectly including the image
During the 20% that it actually scrapes my page, I am having the same issue in the above link. It is reading my thumbnail, yet showing a blank image. The link brings me to a working image but it doesn't want to show anything.
The weird part is it worked completely fine about 10 months ago when I updated this blog on a daily basis. The only difference is I've switched servers recently. While that would explain a possibility, the other domain switched as well and doesn't have this problem.
I am at a loss why my links either show no image at all in facebook or give me the:
Domain Link
Domain
(no image, no description)
Very frustrating situation. Does anyone have any suggestions?
Update:
I have 6 domains...
When I moved servers recently, I found the new server wasn't prepared to compress the pages, so my blog posts looked crazy. This forced me to turn compression 'off' on WP Super Cache on my main blog. I also did it to my 2nd highest traffic blog figuring I'd get to the other 4 later.
Well, now those first two blogs appear to work fine in the facebook debugger, but the remaining 4 have troubles. The tricky part is, I completely removed WP Super Cache from one site and still had trouble fetching the data.
So while it seems logically it should have been a WP Super Cache issue, continuing to have errors despite removing it leads me to believe now? I'm still so baffled.
Update:
Ok, I loaded Chrome and IE, and both were able to pull the data with ease. The google snippet tool also worked great. I am going to try posting a link to my facebook fan page via chrome and see if it works correctly.
I did clear my FF cache and it didn't change, but I am still confused why one domain works ok while the other does not. Either way, if adding in Chrome works, I'll stick with that for now.
Any other suggestions?
Cache should not make any problem. If a browser can see your page, so can facebook debugger.
See if some 500 error is there. Try from different browser, clearing the browser cache etc. Try google rich snippet and see if a custom search engine is scrapping it fine.
PS: It will be nicer if you post url.
I've seen several posts about DropDownLists getting cleared, or events not getting fired, but they don't seem to match this situation.
I've got (well I've reduced the problem to) a very simple asp.net website, a master page with a content page. The content page has a single DropDownList with AutoPostback set to True. The code behind updates a Label with the list's selected value. Not using UpdatePanel or AJAX (though I tried using them and I get exactly the same results). It's an intranet site using Windows authentication.
It works fine on IE and Chrome, but every time I try it on my iPad it just sits and spins. The postback appears to be happening, but either nothing's coming back (or being accepted) from the server, or the client just doesn't know how to finish things up, or I don't know what.
Sorry if this seems vague but I've spent two hours on Google and haven't come up with anything other than the fact that a simple page like this should work fine on an iPad, so I'm a little punchy.
Anybody got any pointers or ideas?
EDIT: Running this page through the remote web access portal my company uses, it works fine. So this may be an authentication problem between the iPad and IIS.
Not sure I have an answer but do you have the issue if you remove the DropDownList? If you need to build the list based on data maybe you could use a asp:repeater and build a html select list.
What is the name of the IE plug in that someone can download (I think from Microsoft) that lets a developer (well, anyone who gets the plug-in, actually) to view the message traffic that goes on behind the scenes from the browser to the server? I saw this one in action but I forget its name. And I think, for the FireFox broswer, you can simply turn it on somehow without getting a plug in.
It cuts the browser window in half horizonally and the bottom half is also divided vertically and you can see the GET and POST messages as well as the complete header information that is sent to the server from the browser across the internet.
HttpWatch is a great plugin for IE, but it's not free. Microsoft also released a free tool called VRTA which works for all browsers, but isn't a plugin.
For firefox it's called Live HTTP Headers. Another option of course is WireShark.
Fiddler is from Microsoft.

I have a Ajax Postback on my site and the same values get back via PageMethods.
I want to see the PageWeight / what exactly is get back, how I can do this?
The author of this blog have a nice tool:
http://encosia.com/2007/07/11/why-aspnet-ajax-updatepanels-are-dangerous/
Use FireBug with FireFox.
The firebug also lists you the page size along with the time taken under the console tab.To do that you need to enable the Net Panel in the firebug.
Bing for firebug and you will see a lot of tutorials on how to do it.
You can also try this tool Deep Tracing of Internet Explorer.It looks nice and seems to have a lot of options for profiling your pages.
