I am somewhat confused wrt. loading sequence. If background page main task is to load data once for all views, and then to update them, shouldn't then views be loaded first (toolstrips etc.)? *background_page*: ... 1. gather data once ... 2. update all views // if loads first, no other views are going to be in the list ...
*all other views*: ... o. have a function that would update view once called from background page ... Or do you expect views to poll background page?
