This probably borders dangerously close to evil, but... Is it possible for an extension to modify the URL for a page that hasn't loaded yet, *before* that URL is requested? You could certainly have a content script change document.location.href after the fact; and I tried having a background page listen for tab changes, and use updateTab to change the tab's URL. But in the later case Chrome still makes the URL request before changing the URL (and making another request).
The use case I'm thinking is for an extension to automatically pre- populate CGI parameters when the user goes to a URL. For example, typing or clicking on http://example.com?foo=bar would actually request http://example.com?foo=bar&extension=evil Thanks, matias --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Chromium-extensions" group.
