I've noticed that request headers and cookies sent have disappear from network inspection in some cases (XHR request for example), at least with OSX Google Chrome.

If you don't see what I mean, just open the web inspector and connect to your Twitter account, then check the XHR requests: you can see request payload and response headers but headers and cookies sent have disappear.

Any idea how to fix this ? I've tried activating some exotic flags in about:flags but saw no changes.

  • Tried it on the main channel chrome and on the dev channel chrome, both are up to date yes (OSX Mountain Lion).

  • I know they introduced a lot of other little tabs to help filter request types. If I had my mac here I would check for you though, unfortunately on windows machine :(

  • Same issue here. Might https have something to do with it?

It seems to be because the requested page is loaded over https. I don't know why Chrome suddenly finds it necessary to hide the request headers, but testing, a secure connection seems to be the trigger for this behavior.

I noticed that request cookies are shown in another tab named 'cookies', it seems to set-cookie header is somehow cut from 'headers' tab.
