[crx] location.reload undefined

[reda]

Hi,

I'm reading the how-to about debugging chrome extension at :
http://code.google.com/chrome/extensions/tut_debugging.html

So I put a breakpoint at some line of my popup, then I went to the
console and entered location.reload() in order to trigger a reload of
my popup, and here I got an "undefined"

I've followed exactly what was said in the how to , why it doesn't
work? Why?

Thanks for your help.

Hi, when you right click on your "browser action" popup, and choose "Inspect Popup" and within the console, you type "location.reload()", it should reload. I tried it here, and it works.

With a breakpoint, it should work as well (I tried it), any other errors?

Hi Mohamed Mansour,

Which version did you use to test ?

I'm running the latest 5.0.375.55 beta of Google chrome, on a Debian
box and the only way to get the location.reload work is to go to the
extension popup page at : chrome-extension://<extension-ID>/popup.html
and then right click on the web page and then "inspect element".

BTW, I've just installed Chrome on windows and this time when I right
click on the helloWorld browser action icon I have NO "inspect
entry". it is version 4.1.249.1064 (45376) on windows XP sp2 and I'm
sure I've already clicked on the "+ developer mode"

What is all these problems ?

Hi Reda,

I have tested it in "Google Chrome 6.0.408.1 (Official Build 47574) dev" from the dev channel. If you right click on your browser action (the icon) and choose "Inspect Popup", the inspector will come up.

It works as expected. You would need to get version 5+ to see the Inspect Popup. I am using the developer version from http://www.chromium.org/getting-involved/dev-channel

Dear Mohamed Mansour,

I confirm what you said, I just downloaded the latest version of
Chrome : 6.0.408.1 on windows and location.reload() works as expected.
Now, there is a problem with version 5.xx that I have (both linux and
windows). Should I report a bug ?

Thanks for your help.

Hello;

I am also experiencing this problem.

I am using Chrome on Ubuntu 9.10 64 version 5.0.375.55 beta.

When trying to follow the tutorial on debugging extensions (
http://code.google.com/chrome/extensions/tut_debugging.html ) I
encounter the same problem:
location.reload()
undefined

Maybe there's a bug?

[Antony Sargent]

If it works in the latest build, no need to report a bug. Either switch to using the dev build for your development, or be patient and wait for the next beta/stable channel release. (On average we push new versions of dev about every week or two, beta about every month or two, and stable every 3-4 months).

I have a weird behavior with my last Chrome update.

If I installed an extension in developer mode, in Chrome 4, and update
to Chrome 5, it works. If I reinstall the extension, it works too.

But, if I have updated to Chrome 5 before install my extension, it
will not work, nor the location.reload() will do anything.

It seems to be a bug there...

Can you create a bug report at http://crbug.com with the set of repro steps and an attachment of the extension source? Then respond back on this thread with the bug number.

Hi.

My problem was caused by an accent in spanish.
It seems the content script file stops being read when a non ASCII
character is found.

I'll search if somebody has reported something like that in other
threads.

Thank you for reading me, and excuse me for this unintended off-topic.

I think your content scripts have to be UTF8 encoded and without a BOM.
