I added all_frames attribute to manifest but still no change in
behaviour. Tried with both false and true values.
{
"name": "ebay bug content script reload",
"author": "tech4compu...@gmail.com",
"version": "0.1",
"description": "On eBay motors page content_script starts again
after few seconds.",
"content_scripts": [
{
"all_frames": false,
"matches": [
"http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/*_Cars_Trucks?
hash=item*"
],
"js": ["content_script.js"]
}
]
}
