Good morning Masters ^^
Firstly, i just have a small problem what i cant solve o.o
I have a google chrome extension program which made those :
- If mouse event happening then open one other page (itself detectionclicks.js)
- If until 5 minutes not happening mouse event open back the before page (itself background.js)
My problem is that, when we reach the 5 minutes, the site cant apper when i use "_self" but apper if i use "_blank".... but in detectionclicks.js the "_self" is working properly. Maybe under the background.js i cant use "_self" parameters?
I use Google Chrome browsers - Version 63.0.3239.108 (Official Build) (64-bit) (under windows 10).
So everything is working perfectly (I mean the timer, and reset the timer also, and the detectionclicks.js open the site itself properly..) just under the background.js window.open "_self" wont want working, just if i use "_blank".

sendResponse("Got your message.");
}, 300000);
return true;
} else if (msg.getCounters) {

}
});
chrome.alarms.onAlarm.addListener(function() {
window.open("http://www.google.com","_blank"); //THIS IS WORK
// window.open("http://www.google.com","_self"); THIS ISN'T WORK
});
Detectionclicks.js

window.open("http://gmail.com","_self");
});
$('html').on('mousemove','*', function(event) {
chrome.runtime.sendMessage({setAlarm: true});

after 5 minutes if wont happening a mouse event. If mouse
event happening, the extension will open an other site.

Popup.js
chrome.extension.getBackgroundPage().timers[tabId] = new Date();
Thank you for your supporting ^^, even if you just read it :)
Please use this
chrome.tabs.create({ url: "http://gmail.com" });
instead of
window.open("http://gmail.com","_self");
more reference please visit https://developer.chrome.com/extensions/tabs#method-create
I can solve the problem in this way ^^'
I know this isn't the best solution, but its looks like made what i want.
(Close the site and open other one... its looks like change the active site ^^')
chrome.tabs.query({active:true,currentWindow:true},function(tabs){
chrome.tabs.remove(tabs[0].id);
});
window.open("http://www.gmail.com","_blank");
});
Thank you for your help, and as i read your solution the original way, but i don't know why open the new tab the site in my chrome browsers o.o ...
So even if i use other solution, i think i accept your answer ^^
Thank you for your help :)

And to two JavaScript files page1.js and page2.
page1.js
var button=document.getElementById("myBtn");
button.click();
Page2.js
document.getElementById("myText").value="Text Box";
I have developed a Chrome extension. On first page when I click the Chrome extension icon the functionality is working good as per JavaScript file(page1.js) for https://myblog.com/page1 page.
And what I am doing on https://myblog.com/page1 page with the help of page1.js is to just click a button to move to second page that is https://myblog.com/page2. Now I want that page2.js should wrok on page https://myblog.com/page2 as scripted(page2.js) but its not working.
Script is working good when I click the extension icon on page1 and then again click the extension icon on page2.
But I want to extension icon should be clicked on page1 not repetitively.
Edited the Question
Added page1.html and page2.html
page1.js and page2.js
Is it possible to doing the same.
If yes where I am doing the mistake?
here's what you need to do.
Your code block chrome.browserAction.onClicked.addListener(function (tab) { makes the JS functions to execute only when you click the icon. That's why your Page 1 works whereas the Page 2 doesn't.
You want the page2.js to run as soon as the Page2.html is opened right? Hence change the coding of your Page2.html. Add the below code in the page2.html itself.
document.addEventListener("DOMContentLoaded", function(event) {
//Do work
});
What this will do is, as soon as the Page2.html is loaded, it will execute the Javascript. Eventhough it works in most of the browsers, but for IE 8 and below it won't.
If you need for IE 8 and below too, then try using the following code:
<script type="text/JavaScript">
function funtionToBeCalled(){
// code that will be exected after dom ready
}
window.onload=funtionToBeCalled;
</script>
I created an extension for Google Chrome which runs a small userscript for designated web-page and makes some requests via background.js to the chrome APIs (such chrome.tabs and others).
now, I'm testing it locally in "Developer mode" like this:
I edit my userscript.js and background.js;
then I go to chrome://extensions tab in Google Chrome and manually reload (CTR+R) my extension from local D:\my-extension folder.
finally, I switch to the tab with designated web-page and reload it to see the changes.
the problem is:
since I'm a beginner, a lot of changes have to be done to my userscript.js and background.js before my extension and userscript start working as expected.
so, this process involves a lot of monotonous switching between extensions and page tabs while testing.
the idea is:
it would be nice to add a button or a shortcut key on the page where the userscript is being tested and attach a sort of 'update_extension_and_reload_page' function to it in my userscript, so that evey time when I click this button it will call extension update from the local folder D:\my-extension then followed by page reload. (another alternative would be to assign such 'update_extension_and_reload_page' function to extension's browser_action icon.)
now, I'm just interested:
is there any sort of 'chrome.extesion.update' method, so that I could make a request to it from my userscript.js via background.js and call automatic reload of the extension (in "Developer mode") without need to go to the chrome://extensions tab.
The extension can reload itself, by calling chrome.runtime.reload(), so it's a matter of triggering the extension to do it.
The code below attaches the following functionality to the browser-action button:
Keeps track of the active tab.
Reloads the extension.
Reloads the active tab.
manifest.json
...
"browser_action": {
"default_title": "Reload"
// "default_icon": {
// "19": "img/icon19.png",
// "38": "img/icon38.png"
// },
},
...
background.js
chrome.browserAction.onClicked.addListener(function (tab) {
localStorage.tabToReload = tab.id;
chrome.runtime.reload();
});
function reloadTab() {
var tabID = localStorage.tabToReload;
if (tabID) {
chrome.tabs.reload(parseInt(tabID));
delete(localStorage.tabToReload);
}
}
reloadTab();
...

How do I auto-reload a Chrome extension I'm developing?
slightly modified the ExpertSystem's code above to call reload of extension followed by reload of tab where the content script (userscript.js) is being performed, all triggered by #reload-btn button (in case the browser_action icon is occupied with popup.html).

#reload-btn { position: fixed; top: 0; right: 0; } /* or any other position on the page */

$("body").prepend("<button id='reload-btn'>reload extension + page reload</button>"); // some shortcut key can be additionally assigned to this button
$("#reload-btn").on("click", function() {

localStorage.tabToReload = sender.tab.id;
chrome.runtime.reload();
}
});

var tabID = localStorage.tabToReload;
if (tabID) {
chrome.tabs.reload(parseInt(tabID));
delete(localStorage.tabToReload);
}

Chrome extension delay condition
Im very beginner at extensions and by collecting codes from here and there I created a simple one which collects the tab's url (works for specific website) and using ajax Im sending it to my server in order to store it in my database.
What Im trying to do is to add a timer so the browser button will be disabled (or do nothing) if the previous click occured in less than 5 seconds.
Below is the structure of the extension:
Manifest:
{
"name": "The name",
"icons": { "16": "Big.png",
"48": "Big.png",
"128": "Big.png" },
"version": "1.0",
"manifest_version": 2,
"description": "and the description",
"browser_action": {
"default_icon": "icon.png",
"default_popup": "popup.html"
},
"permissions": ["tabs", "<all_urls>"]
}
popup.js:
chrome.tabs.getSelected(null,function(tab) {
var Mp=tab.url
if(Mp=='http://www.examplesite.com')
{
var xhr=new XMLHttpRequest();
var Params;
xhr.open("POST", "http://myserver.com/post_from_extension.asp", true);
xhr.setRequestHeader("Content-type", "application/x-www-form-urlencoded");
Params='Url=' + tab.url;
xhr.onreadystatechange=function()
{
if(xhr.readyState==4)
{
message.innerHTML=xhr.responseText;
}
}
xhr.send(Params);
}
else
{
message.innerHTML='<span style="font-family: Segoe UI, Tahoma;color: #f00">This is not a valid url</span>';
}
});
popup.html
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html style=''>
<head>
<script src='popup.js'></script>
</head>
<body style="width:400px;">
<div id='message'><span style="font-family: Segoe UI, Tahoma;color: #00f">Sending request</span></div>
</body>
</html>
As a side question, is there any other method to post the url in my database, if not with Ajax?
Thank you for reading me.
I think you should add a background page (script) to your extension - this is a kind of application state. Add this in the manifest:
"background": {
"scripts": ["background.js"]
},
Then in the page you can define an array storing last times when browser action was performed for each tab.
var timers = [];
You can update this array's elements from your popup.js, something like that (in getSelected callback):
chrome.extension.getBackgroundPage().timers[tabId] = new Date();
chrome.browserAction.disable(tabId);
chrome.browserAction.setIcon({path: "icon-disabled.png", tabId: tabId});
Note how you can disable browser action and change its appearence to a disable/grayed one.
When a period passed since the registered time exceeds 5 seconds you should re-enable the button from the background page.
var currentTime = new Date();
if(currentTime - chrome.extension.getBackgroundPage().timers[tabId] > 5000)
{
chrome.browserAction.enable(tabId);
chrome.browserAction.setIcon({path: "icon-enabled.png", tabId: tabId});
}
You can execute this code from setInterval callback and within a cycle through all elements in the timers array.
I'm trying to write a trivial Chrome pageAction extension to change all anchors on a page from one domain to another... but I can't quite seem to get it to work, and I'm having trouble debugging it.
Am I misunderstanding how this kind of extension needs to be built? Or am I just misusing the API?
manifest.json:
{
"name": "theirs2ours",
"version": "1.0",
"description": "Changes all 'their' URLs to 'our' URLs.",
"background_page": "background.html",
"permissions": [
"tabs"
],
"page_action": {
"default_icon": "cookie.png",
"default_title": "theirs2ours"
},
"content_scripts": [
{
"matches": ["http://*/*"],
"js": ["content.js"]
}
]
}
background.html:
<html>
<head>
<script type='text/javascript'>
chrome.tabs.onSelectionChanged.addListener(function(tabId) {
chrome.pageAction.show(tabId);
});
chrome.tabs.getSelected(null, function(tab) {
chrome.pageAction.show(tab.id);
});
chrome.pageAction.onClicked.addListener(function(tab) {
chrome.tabs.sendRequest(tab.id, {}, null);
});
</script>
</head>
<body>
</body>
</html>
content.js:
var transform = function() {
var theirs = 'http://www.yourdomain.com';
var ours = 'http://sf.ourdomain.com';
var anchors = document.getElementsByTagName('a');
for (var a in anchors) {
var link = anchors[a];
var href = link.href;
if (href.indexOf('/') == 0) link.href = ours + href;
else if (href.indexOf(theirs) == 0) link.href = href.replace(theirs, ours);
}
};
chrome.extension.onRequest.addListener(function(request, sender, sendResponse) {
transform();
});
I think this is not the way to do the extension you want.
First of all, I assume you want to replace the anchors when you click the page action button.
The manifest you have injects content.js on every page, no matter if you click or not the page action button.
I suggest you remove the content_scripts field from your manifest, and inject content.js manually, with
chrome.tabs.executeScript(tabId, {file:'content.js'})
You should do this in the page action's click listener.
By the way, in that listener you are sending a request to the content script, but it hasn't a listener to listen to such request message. In this extension you won't need to use senRequest.
You're not requesting permission to run content scripts on these pages. The matches for content scripts determines what pages they are executed in but you still need to request permission to inject scripts in to these pages.
"permissions": [
"tabs",
"http://*/*"
]
this is my manifest.json file
{
"name": "My First Extension",
"version": "1.0",
"description": "The first extension that I made.",
"background_page": "background.html",
"page_action":
{
"default_icon": "icon.png"
},
"permissions" : [
"tabs"
]
}
This is the background.html
<html>
<head>
<script>
// Called when the url of a tab changes.
function checkForValidUrl(tabId, changeInfo, tab) {
// If the letter 'page' is found in the tab's URL...
if (tab.url.indexOf('google') > -1) {
// ... show the page action.
chrome.pageAction.show(tabId);
}
};
// Listen for any changes to the URL of any tab.
chrome.tabs.onUpdated.addListener(checkForValidUrl);
chrome.pageAction.onClicked.addListener(function(tab)
{
tab.url = 'www.bing.com';
console.log('I am clicked');
}
);
</script>
</head>
</html>
when i click on the page action icon , i want to redirect the page to Bing.com, but this click event is not working for me.
Thanks
If you want to redirect a tab you need to use:
chrome.tabs.update(tab.id, {url: "http://www.bing.com"});
You also need to check for status of the page as checkForValidUrl will be executed twice for every page:
function checkForValidUrl(tabId, changeInfo, tab) {
if(changeInfo.status === "loading") {
//...
}
});
Have u tried using javascripts window.location function instead? e.g:
window.location="http://www.bing.com";
If that doesn't work then it's probably a problem with your event listener I would have thought.
