Hi, I tried to write an override page ( http://code.google.com/chrome/extensions/override.html ) for the ntp that shows an empty page. I had two issues.
1.) I wanted "my" ntp to not contain anything but the theme's NTP background. However, it seems as if extensions can't access chrome://theme/theme_ntp_background . I guess that makes sense, but it would be nice if extensions had some access to some parts of the theme images. 2.) I wanted my ntp to have "New Tab" as title, just as the normal ntp. Leaving <title> empty made chrome give the page the title "chrome://new-tab", which doesn't seem as that's ever useful. It would be nice if extensions either had access to a subset of the built-in localized strings of chrome, or, a little more low-tech, if ntp- override pages without a title would get the NTP's default title. (As a workaround, I tried to set an empty title, which is imho better than "chrome://new-tab". Chrome helpfully puts "chrome://new-tab" as title if the override page's title is whitespace-only. I ended up using some esoteric unicode whitespace character, which chrome doesn't recognize as whitespace but renders as whitespace, which works as a workaround, but…) Thanks, Nico -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Chromium-extensions" group.
