ah.

this was my workaround: (the popup seems to max out at a particular
width, couldn't make it wider).

thanks,

<!DOCTYPE html>
<head>
<script>
//parse a URL to form an object of properties
function parseURL(url)
{
   var loc = { 'href' : url };
   var parts = url.replace('//', '/').split('/');

    loc.protocol = parts[0];
    loc.host = parts[1];

    parts[1] = parts[1].split(':');
    loc.hostname = parts[1][0];
    return loc;
}


function sw() {

chrome.tabs.getSelected(null, function(tab) {
 var parts = parseURL(tab.url);
 var hostname = parts.hostname.replace(/^www\./i,'');
   document.getElementById("if").src = "http://blahmydomain.com.com/
blah" + hostname;
  });
}

sw();
</script>
<style>
body {
margin: 0px;
width:950px;  // doesn't seem to work.
height: 850px;
}
</style>

</head>
<body>
<iframe id=if width=950px height=850 frameborder=0 marginwidth=0
marginheight=0/>
</body>
