I want to display a simple alert
when user clicks on my extension icon. I have tried this code :
chrome.browserAction.onClicked.addListener(
alert(1)
);
Here is my manifest
:
{
"manifest_version": 2,
"name": "sample",
"description": "des",
"version": "1.0",
"browser_action": {
"default_icon": "icon.png"
},
"permissions": [
]
}
How do I show an alert onClick
event ?
updated:
According the documentation it is like:
chrome.browserAction.onClicked.addListener(function() {
alert('Hello, World!');
})
and here is the sample from Google (zip-file):

var min = 1;
var max = 5;
var current = min;
function updateIcon() {
chrome.browserAction.setIcon({path:"icon" + current + ".png"});
current++;
if (current > max)
current = min;
}
chrome.browserAction.onClicked.addListener(updateIcon);
updateIcon();
