javascript - How to open a link in a new tab when clicking on an image in a chrome extension? -
i made simple chrome extension that, when clicked, has dropdown menu has row of icons. possible set when icon clicked, opens respective website in new tab?
(note: have tried make refer link in popup.html
file, if click on icon, doesn't anything.)
any help, suggestions or advice appreciated, thanks!
you need assign click handler icon executes following:
chrome.tabs.create({url: websitetoopen});
if want open in background without closing popup, 1 more parameter required:
chrome.tabs.create({url: websitetoopen, active: false});
do note "tabs"
permission not needed this.
this example chrome docs shows how assign click hanlder in way that's compatible chrome extensions (onclick
attribute not work)
