Thanks for the links. But I have faced some problems when I've gone through above links.
The first link is good but it focused on firefox extensions. So I have to filter out the most part of it. And I don't know what are the requirements the developed plugins should have in chrome. So please be kind enough to fill the gap between that tutorial and Google Chrome plugins. I think it will be very useful if we have a small sample of a plugin developed for chrome as well. I am doing this as a project for a university course module. And I don't have any previous experience in dealing with plugins DLLs/SOs. I chose this project to give some contribution from my side to the open source community. So any help on this is really appreciated.
