I am having trouble getting getSelected to read at all.
my code is:
var url, title;
chrome.tabs.getSelected(null, function(tab){
url = tab.url;
title = tab.title;
console.log(tab);});
but it never seems to execute the function as I step through in the
debugger, and url and title are always undefined. Is there something
I am doing wrong with my request?
