For the time being, you can work around this limitation by taking advantage of the fact that content scripts can be set to run in all frames on a page. See the "all_frames" property here:
http://code.google.com/chrome/extensions/content_scripts.html If the work you want to do in the iframe is somehow dependent on the owner frame or your content script running there, you could add in some coordination between the two either via appending <script> tags to the owner frame, or have the two content scripts exchange messages using the message passing API: http://code.google.com/chrome/extensions/messaging.html On Fri, Nov 27, 2009 at 3:48 PM, Adam Barth <aba...@chromium.org> wrote: > Yes.
