Creating Chrome extensions

#1 Post by Lobster »

Seamonkey and Firefox both use XUL - I had a go with that years ago
Now time for googlification
Chrome uses javascript

Following this example, I was able to create an extension
http://code.google.com/chrome/extension ... arted.html
Even a fish could manage that

Then I modified my manifest.jso
and popup.html

Code: Select all

{
  "name": "Tmxxine Chrome",
  "version": "1.0",
  "description": "Open source Time Travel.",
  "browser_action": {
    "default_icon": "yap.png",
    "popup": "popup.html"
  },
}

Code: Select all

<img src="yap.png" height="12" width="12" alt="Tmxxine main site" style="border:0; margin:0;"></a>  
<a href="tmxxine.com">tmxxine0</a>

<img src="yap.png" height="12" width="12" alt="Tmxxine main site" style="border:0; margin:0;"></a>  
<a href="tmxxine.com">tmxxine1</a>
The popup.html is displaying
but not activating - which may need javascript

eh . . .
how do I do that?

This would be great in Puppy
- an icon for google giving access to search
forum, Barrys site, news, wiki etc
