Data Warehouse Viewer: Cannot find indexedDB database coming from localhost

I was working on a Firefox add-in that uses indexedDB to create a database locally. However, I cannot see the contents of my database using the repository viewer in Firefox web development tools. When I expand below “Indexed DB” on the “Storage” tab, I see different domain names, but not my database name, nor localhost. I also keep getting the message “No data for selected host” no matter where I click.

(I would post a screenshot, but the system will not allow me, since I am too new here.)

Does the storage browser always have problems finding locally created databases? Or could it mean that my database is not being created properly? My extra code seems to have access to it just fine.

All suggestions are welcome.

Thanks Sarah

I recently came across the same issue when developing a web application for Firefox OS. At first it didn't work either. Then I got it to work when removing the hash part (including the hash) from the url. It seems that the data warehouse viewer can only find db for a URL without a hash. Do you have a hash in the URL?

Hope this helps.
