Laucnhing bookmark manager programmatically?

[IlkkaH]

Hi,

GC has this bookmark manager, which can be launched from the "tools"
menu or from some context menus.

I'm wondering if I can launch from the extension, programmatically?
Well, the chances may be pretty slim, but still...

The intent is to avoid duplicating that same functionality in my own
extension when I could take use of the existing functionality - the
manager seems to be OK.

Thanks,
Ilkka

Mmm...

You can just window.open("chrome://bookmarks"), can you not?

Or window.open("chrome-extension://eemcgdkfndhakfknompkggombfjjjeno/main.html") maybe?

Whoops, that worked, I'm a newbie obviously.

Although I would have liked to open it in the same tab (like
location.replace, which didn't seem to work, perhaps because of
permissions), but chrome.tab.create worked OK.

Thanks PhistucK.

Try:

chrome.tabs.update({url: "chrome://bookmarks"})

Oops, solutions are easy today. I should have thought of that.

Thanks :)
