"I have completed all others in my extension." - all others...what?
Are you trying to write an extension that would log you in automatically? Do you expect Chrome to do that for you?

[Aswin Kumar K P]

Yeah you're right .I want my extension to log me in automaticaly into a site. Was it possible?? How can I do that???

If you are talking about a specific website, you should use a content script with match patterns for that specific website.

Most of the times, simple things work. You find the relevant fields (username, password), change their value and trigger a click on a submit button (for example, submitButton.click()), or submit the form (for example, form.submit()).

Some websites have irregular login scripts that require fake input events (keydown, keyup or keypress) and fake focus events to be triggered on the fields. You will have to experiment to find out.

<div class="fer">

     <label for="ft_un">

        Username(Net ID):

     </label>

    <input id="ft_un" style="width:245px" name="username"></input>

 </div>

<div class="fer">

    <label for="ft_pd">

        Net ID Password:

    </label>

    <input id="ft_pd" type="password" style="width:245px" name="password"></input>

</div>

<div class="fer">

    <input type="submit" value="Continue"></input>

This is the form's HTML for username and password fields on a site.How can I use content script and match pattern to fill those information on a site and trigger the submit button,So that my extension will auto login to a site.

A content script can access the DOM.

Think about it like a script that you simply add to the page. How would you enter the credentials and submit the form in a normal script? that is exactly how you would do it in a content script.

The definition of the content script within the manifest is as follows -

"content_scripts": [{"js": "content-script-name.js", "matches": "http://the-given-website.com/the/give/path?or=query&string=1", "run_at": "document_end"}]

See https://developer.chrome.com/extensions/content_scripts.html for more information.
