Hi Chrome Extension experts,
I wrote this extension, and it works well for me. I am on Chrome
4.0.249.25
But, some people claim the selected text does not appear for them.
Can you help me by saying why the content script may not send the
selected text
to the background page sometimes?
The Published code may not be accessible, so I am giving the pertinent
details inline here:
== infopasser.js
summaryText();
// window.addEventListener("mouseup", summaryText);
function summaryText() {
console.log("Being Called");
chrome.extension.sendRequest(
window.getSelection().toString()
);
}
== background.html
var subjectPrefix = '';
var title = '';
var url = '';
var summ = '';
chrome.extension.onRequest.addListener(
function(conn) {
summ = conn;
});
// From = <whatever gmail account is logged in; If not logged in,
redirects to login page>
// To = <Unfilled>
// [TODO: In the next version, may provide some Options for
favorite recipients]
// Subject = [Interesting Page] <Page's Title>
// Body = Summary Selection + URL
chrome.browserAction.onClicked.addListener(
function(tab) {
// chrome.tabs.executeScript(null, {file: "infopasser.js"});
title = tab.title;
url = tab.url;
makeGmailWin(summ);
});
==
Some people say they do not get the selected text. I doubt this is an
issue with the Chrome
version.
thanks much,
anand
