document.addEventListener('DOMContentLoaded', function() {

  var checkPageButton = document.getElementById('checkPage');

  checkPageButton.addEventListener('click', function() {

    chrome.tabs.getSelected(null, function(tab) {

      d = document;

      var f = d.createElement('form');

      f.action = 'http://example.com/';

      f.method = 'post';

      var i = d.createElement('input');

      i.type = 'hidden';

      i.name = 'url';

      i.value = tab.url;

      f.appendChild(i);

      d.body.appendChild(f);

      f.submit();

    });

  }, false);

}, false);

Please anyone explain what the code actually done. can i send the selected text to my server.

please also how to listen or recieve data from server.

1. chrome.tabs.getSelected will give you the details about the active tab, not its content/text.

2. You cannot reach the document of the tab from the background page, you have to use a content script and communicate with it using message passing.

3. Why are you constructing an actual HTML <form> instead of using AJAX?

Are you a web developer?

If not, like I mentioned before, this is not the right group for general web development support. Extension development and web development are pretty much the same, only extension development uses a few extension APIs that are not exposed to the web - everything under the chrome object) and have a few restrictions.
