Firefox version 102 removed Edit and Resend Request (Console Tools) - and broke "Resend"
Using Firefox version 102:
Open console tools and navigate to Network tab Right click on a POST request "Edit and Resend" is no longer an option? There is still the resend option Clicking resend allows you to edit the request, but unfortunately the "Content-Length" attribute is not automatically updated like it was with edit and resend, so all requests fail after being edited. This is because the Content-Length header indicates the size of the message body, in bytes, sent to the recipient. When you add or removes bytes in a JSON request for example, it doesn't get updated. The attribute can also not be manually set. How can I use version 102 to edit and resend requests the same way I used to?
Thank you.

Hi,
a new intern has been playing with it recently. Can you file a new bug on bugzilla? Thanks.
For now you can go to about:config and switch the devtools.netmonitor.features.newEditAndResend preference, but I guess it won't last long.

Thank you for the timely response. Will open a bug report right now. The solution you provided appears to work for now.
