Hi all,

I have the feeling that
http://code.google.com/chrome/extensions/messaging.html  is a bit outdated
(e.g. some params are missing) so I'm wondering if someone could help me
with the following situation.

I have a Browser Action with a popup (popup.js).  I have this line:

chrome.extension.sendRequest(undefined, {requestUrl: requestUrl, success:
success, error: opt_error});

(it sends a request to itself containing an object with the above params,
which are defined earlier.  There is no callback function)

In the background page, I have:
chrome.extension.onRequest.addListener(
    function(req, sender, sendResponse) {
      console.log("got request");
      // TODO: Do something.
    });

The console log doesn't show any messages, and any code I place in there
doesn't seem to execute.  Just for kicks I also added "sendResponse();" to
the end but it didn't make a difference, either.

Any idea what's up?  I assume that I can send messages from the popup to the
background page...are there any tricks to it?  FYI I'm doing this on linux.

thanks,
Paul
