Hi,
On eBay-motors site on some of the vehicles ad the Extension will run
once and then after few seconds it will start again. Its not same as a
page reload/refresh. The original (first run) content-script variables
are maintained.
This doesn't happen with firefox extension with identical code.
Here's test script:
manifest.json :
{
"name": "ebay bug content script reload",
"author": "tech4computer",
"version": "0.1",
"description": "On eBay motors page content_script starts again
after few seconds.",
"content_scripts": [
{
"matches": [
"http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/*_Cars_Trucks?
hash=item*"
],
"js": ["content_script.js"]
}
]
}
content_script.js :
<start>
if ( !x ) var x=0;
x=x+1;
alert("x = "+x);
<end>
Test:
1. load extension
2. Goto ebay-motors car ad:
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/DVD-NAVIGATION-POWER-DOORS-STOW-N-GO-NO-RESERVE_W0QQitemZ120517081075QQcmdZViewItemQQptZUS_Cars_Trucks?hash=item1c0f60b7f3#ht_27556wt_1165

3. You will get an alert message:
x = 1
after 5-10 seconds you will get
x = 2
4. Reload/Refresh page
x = 1
The x = 2 indicates that the script is run two times. It happens on
some ads.
