JSON - Make popup navigate to Google -
i'm trying write chrome extension where, when clicked, drop down google. now, loads local .html file. here code have:
{ "manifest_version": 2, "name": "thename", "description": "thedesc", "version": "1.0", "browser_action": { "default_icon": "icon.png", "default_popup": "http://www.google.com", "default_title": "tooltip" }, "permissions": [ "activetab", "https://ajax.googleapis.com/" ] }
i have 4 files in folder: icon.png, manifest.json, popup.html, & popup.js. using "getting started" tutorial https://developer.chrome.com/extensions/getstarted template, extremely new of (vb6 programmer years).
edit: got open webpage in little popup. now, need grab title of current tab's url, remove spaces it, trim down 30 characters max, assign string, navigate www.website.com/string. i'm thinking extension needs create new popup.html each time, taxing on server. perhaps can done straight extension? don't have clue. guessing @ point.
