    <p>I'm trying to make a chrome extension that will search different cache databases for a given page. However, it's not working as I expect it to.</p> <pre><code>&lt;!DOCTYPE HTML&gt; &lt;html&gt; &lt;head&gt; &lt;script type="text/javascript"&gt; var x; var img = document.getElementsByTagName("img"); for(x in img) { img[x].addEventListener('click',openPage, false); } function openPage(event) { alert("clicked"); var e = event.target; switch(e.alt) { case "WayBack Machine": chrome.tabs.update(tab.id, { url: "http://wayback.archive.org/web/*/" + tab.url }); break; case "Google Cache": if(tab.url.substring(0, 5) == "http:") chrome.tabs.update(tab.id, { url: 'http://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:' + tab.url.substr(7) }); else if(tab.url.substring(0,6) == "https:") chrome.tabs.update(tab.id, { url: 'http://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:' + tab.url.substr(8) }); break; case "Yahoo Cache": // Need the yahoo cache url break; case "Bing Cache": chrome.tabs.update(tab.id, { url: "http://cc.bingj.com/cache.aspx?q=" + tab.url + "&amp;d=4572216504747453&amp;mkt=en-US&amp;setlang=en-US&amp;w=802790a9,218b61b8" }); break; case "Gigablast": chrome.tabs.update(tab.id, { url: "http://www.gigablast.com/get?q=" + tab.url + "&amp;c=main&amp;d=70166151696&amp;cnsp=0" }); break; case "CoralCDN": chrome.tabs.update(tab.id, { url: tab.url + ".nyud.net" }); break; default: // Webcite // Need to send a request, this won't do chrome.tabs.update(tab.id, { url: "http://webcitation.org/query" }); break; } } &lt;/script&gt; &lt;/head&gt; &lt;body&gt; &lt;img src="Google Cache.png", alt="WayBack Machine" class="button" id="WayBack Machine" height ="40px" /&gt; &lt;img src="Google Cache.png", alt="Google Cache" class="button" id="Google Cache" height ="40px" /&gt; &lt;img src="Google Cache.png", alt="Yahoo Cache" class="button" id="Yahoo Cache" height ="40px" /&gt; &lt;img src="Google Cache.png", alt="Bing Cache" class="button" id="Bing Cache" height ="40px" /&gt; &lt;img src="Google Cache.png", alt="Gigablast" class="button" id="Gigablast" height ="40px" /&gt; &lt;img src="Google Cache.png", alt="CoralCDN" class="button" id="CoralCDN" height ="40px" /&gt; &lt;img src="Google Cache.png", alt="Webcite" class="button" id="Webcite" height ="40px" /&gt; &lt;/body&gt; &lt;/html&gt; </code></pre> <p>However, it does not even alert(); When I try the code in a jsfiddle.net, it works: <a href="http://jsfiddle.net/RZ2wC/" rel="nofollow">http://jsfiddle.net/RZ2wC/</a></p> <hr> <p>Here is my manifest.json:</p> <pre><code>{ "name": "gCache", "version": "1.1.5", "description": "View the Google Cache of a page", "browser_action": { "default_icon": "icon.png", "default_text": "Google Cache version of this page", "default_popup": "cacheList.html" }, "permissions": [ "tabs" ] } </code></pre> <hr> <p>Any help would be greatly appreciated.
