How to enable chrome extension without clicking it.
I need to perform a certain function from my extension every time i reload a page(no clicking) is there a way to do it.
My code which contains the on click method
chrome.extension.onMessage.addListener(function(request, sender) {
if (request.action == "getSource") {
message.innerText = request.source;
}
});
function onWindowLoad() {
var message = document.querySelector('#message');
chrome.tabs.executeScript(null, {
file: "getPagesSource.js"
}, function() {
// If you try and inject into an extensions page or the webstore/NTP you'll get an error
if (chrome.extension.lastError) {
message.innerText = 'There was an error injecting script : n' + chrome.extension.lastError.message;
}
});
}
window.onload = onWindowLoad;
and
chrome.extension.sendMessage({
action: "getSource",
source: started(document)
});

Answer
To include jQuery:
<head>
<script src="http://code.jquery.com/jquery-latest.min.js"></script>
<script>
/*all your normal JavaScript (or include as link)*/
</script>
</head>
Using only pure JavaScript you can do this with:
window.onload = function(){/*your JavaScript code*/};
only the code within that function will be immediately executed.
In jQuery you can wrap the code you want executed upon loading of page inside of $(document).ready(function(){, e.g.
$(document).ready(function(){
/*code goes here*/
});
$(document).ready() checks for when a page is loaded enough to have functionality.
