For any element I see only the $root bindings

[DougLeary]

No matter which element I inspect, the knockout tab always shows the same list of observables from $root for the page. When the page loads dynamic content the tab stays the same. It always says the $parents array is empty, even when I inspect an element that is nested several context layers deep.

Hi,

Do you have the issue on every website with knockoutjs ? If not, could you specify a website/screenshot so I can see the issue. Picture is thousand words :)
Could you please try it on the following website: http://knockoutjs.com/examples/contactsEditor.html

This should give something like below

What is the current version of the installed extension?
Should be 2.6.3

Hi Tim,

Thanks very much for replying. On my home computer your Chrome debug
extension works great, and is truly a thing of beauty! The problem
occurs only on the company web app I am working on in my job. I just
recently started working there, and am still ramping up learning their
web app. Basically the only thing wrong is that the knockout pane always
shows the root context, no matter which element is inspected. I suspect
that the problem is the over-complexity of the app itself, which to me
seems WAAAAAAYYY over-engineered, given what it does. I can't send you
the actual code, but as I go along I will try to reduce it to the
smallest structure that will repro the problem, and will send you that.

Again, I appreciate that you took the time to reply!

Cheers,
Doug Leary

A few points that may help

• Try to disable serialization Constantly hangs the browser #9 (comment)
• check how you instantiate the viewmodel, incorrect use of the new operator will put things in the global scope
• Don't put any dom elements in the viewmodel

If this all fails, try selecting a dom element and type the following in the console

ko.dataFor($0))

ko.toJS(ko.dataFor($0))

Wow, thanks! Forwarded to my work mail to try in the morning!
