I'm trying to execute some script inside another external page off of a new tab listener.
background.js
function onCreatedChrome(){
chrome.tabs.onCreated.addListener(function(tab) {
if (tab.url.indexOf("chrome-devtools://") == -1) {
localStorage.setItem("tabid", tab.id);
chrome.tabs.executeScript(tab.id, {code: "alert('Hello World')"}, function() {
if (chrome.runtime.lastError) {
localStorage.setItem("Error", chrome.runtime.lastError.message);
console.error(chrome.runtime.lastError.message);
}
else{
localStorage.setItem("Else case", "This should work")
}
});
}
});
}
function createTab(){
return function(){
var url = "https://www.yahoo.com/";
chrome.tabs.create({ url: url });
}
}
$(document).ready(function(){
onCreatedChrome();
$("#button").click(createTab());
});
manifest.json
{
"manifest_version": 2,
"name": "Execute Script",
"description": "ExecuteScript extension",
"version": "1.0",
"permissions": [
"activeTab",
"tabs",
"http://*/*",
"https://www.yahoo.com/*"
],
"content_scripts": [
{
"matches": ["https://*/*"],
"js": ["jquery.js"]
}
],
"background":{
"scripts": ["background.js",
"jquery.js"]
},
"browser_action": {
"default_popup": "index.html"
}
}
index.html
<html>
<head></head>
<body>
<button id="button">Click Me</button>
</body>
<script type="text/javascript" src="jquery.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="background.js"></script>
</html>
I want thealert('Hello World')to be injected into Yahoo!'s homepage (This is just an example of what I am trying to do in another extension)

The problem with your code is becuase you added jQuery.js after the background.js file Here is the fix:
"background":{
"scripts": ["jquery.js",
"background.js"]
},
Another alternative for the executeScrit task:
chrome.tabs.onUpdated.addListener(function(tabId, changeInfo, tab) {
if (changeInfo.status != 'complete')
return;
if (tab.url.indexOf('yahoo.com') != -1) {
chrome.tabs.executeScript(tabId, {
code: 'alert(1)'
});
}
});
