After hitting reload, the script just appeared to not run (I had a bunch of contentWindow.console.log messages to let me know if it did). Very occasionally it would load, and I would see my changes. I could never get an alert() to work, either alert, window.alert, or contentWindow.alert(); though I'll admit that I didn't try very hard, and the times I tried it may have overlapped with the times where the script failed to load. >> - Couldn't see JS errors for the extension in the inspector, but I >> think the inspector is pretty hosed regardless. > > What do you mean?

In that case, I blame the nightly I was using - it wasn't doing a very good job of showing errors from webpages either. Maybe this explains the load-fail error as well. >> - The doc isn't clear about what to do with the CRX.

Ah, this was a nightly that was not my default Chrome - dragging it onto that nightly Chrome gave me a "Windows doesn't know what to do with this file" after it 'downloaded', so I guess I missed an associations step. > Both files appear to be invalid?? The .zip was the .crx renamed to .zip. I have manually created a new .zip and uploaded it over the old one. Not sure why the .crx was invalid - I didn't get any error messages when I created it, and both files opened fine in 7-zip; maybe this explains why it didn't install, either. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ Chromium Developers mailing list: [email protected] View archives, change email options, or unsubscribe: http://groups.google.com/group/chromium-dev -~----------~----~----~----~------~----~------~--~---
