Hi, I thought I had this problem licked in my last extension. And I did. But now it's happening again and I don't see how this context is any different from the last.
The following code, in the content script, is sending a couple of requests to background.html for data in local storage: var server = "https://"; + getHostParm("hostname") + ":" + getHostParm ("port"); function getHostParm(parm){ chrome.extension.sendRequest({name: parm}, function(response) { if (parm == "hostname") return response.hostname; if (parm == "port") return response.port; if (parm == "passwd") return response.passwd; if (parm == "email_addr") return response.email_addr; }); } background.html waits for requests: //Wait for request for the host name, port, e-mail address and password from content script chrome.extension.onRequest.addListener( function(request, sender, sendResponse) { if (request.name == "hostname") { sendResponse({hostname: localStorage["hostname"]}); } if (request.name == "port") { sendResponse({port: localStorage["port"]}); } if (request.name == "passwd") { sendResponse({passwd: localStorage["passwd"]}); } if (request.name == "email_addr") { sendResponse({email_addr: localStorage["email_addr"]}); } } ); However, when I ran the debugger, it seemed that getHostParm() completed before the listener could respond. In any case, getHostParm () returns "undefined". I know the requested data is on disk, because it's part of my options processing and I know that works.
