</div>Thanks for the clarification. Indeed, that’s true:<br>
<br>
1. Visit <a href="http://java.sun.com/javase/7/docs/api/" target="_blank">http://java.sun.com/javase/7/docs/api/</a><br>
2. Select Tools → Developer → Developer Tools from the browser chrome<br>
(or press ctrl-shift-I)<br>
3. Choose Elements from the top of the developer tools window<br>
4. Click the black magnifying glass icon at the bottom of the developer<br>
tools window, so it turns blue<br>
5. Click on a frame. Its <frame> tag gets selected.<br>
6. Click the manifying glass icon again.<br>
7. Click on an element within the selected frame.<br>
<br>
Even though individual elements are correctly highlighted when you<br>
hover, the inspector window refuses to automagically jump to the correct<br>
tag.<br>
<br>
Could you report this upstream through<br>
<a href="http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/entry?template=Defect%20on%20Linux" target="_blank">http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/entry?template=Defect%20on%20Linux</a><br>
so we can work on a fix there (and send a link to this bug log)?<br>
<br>
If you can’t because you don’t have an account or something, that’s<br>
fine, too, but please do let us know.<br>
<br>
Thanks again,<br>
