Thanks for the reply Aaron.

I am not the author of the original Diigo bookmarklet application
(which btw works great with Chrome).
I was just trying to get my favorite bookmarking tool (with highlight
feature) to work on Chrome without having to press the bookmarklet
button all the time.

So I thought "hmm, a bookmarklet just executes JS code in the page's
context... a bit like Greasemonkey... and 'content-scripts' are GM-
like so why not throw a quick Chrome extension together"...
but it seems there is more to Chrome's content-scripts then I
thought....

In the original Diigo code, the author mixes "window.diigolet"  and
straight "diigolet" object access methods, which, if I remember
correctly, is OK in the usual document object, right? but could be a
problem with Chrome?
