I'm using content scripts and I would like to inject a button to a webpage.
This is my manifest.json:
{
"manifest_version": 2,
"name": "my extension",
"browser_action": {
"default_icon": "icon.png",
"default_popup": "popup.html"
},
"permissions": [
"activeTab"
],
"content_scripts": [
{
"matches": ["http://127.0.0.1:8000/*"],
"js": ["script.js"],
"run_at": "document_end"
}
]
}
This is popup.html:
<html>
<body>
<input type="button" id="button" style="display:none;">
</body>
</html>
And script.js:
document.body.style.backgroundColor = "yellow";
var button = document.getElementById("button");
button.style.visibility = "visible";
When going to http://127.0.0.1:8000 I see the background changes to yellow, however it doesn't find button because it's not part of the webpage served by my local server. It shows this error:
Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read property 'style' of null
What should I do to inject a button on top of the content in http://127.0.0.1:8000 (assuming I don't know its content)?
