Keep Chrome extension popup open while navigating to a new page


I'm developing a Google Chrome extension with a popup (it's a browser action), and it changes the location of the page, which makes the popup disappear. How can I make it stay between page reloads?


Solution

  • You can't. browserAction popups are closed on any activity outside of the popup. You could potentially use Desktop Notifications though.
