i have a chrome extension which dynamically create an iframe with a button for each chrome tab.

For this action From background.js i send message to content.js

chrome.tabs.sendMessage(tabs[0].id, {action: "load_ifram~"+id}, function(response) {});

content.js:
chrome.extension.onMessage.addListener(function(msg, sender, sendResponse) {
split_message = msg.action.split("~");
if (split_message[0] == 'load_ifram') {     
var id = split_message[1];
var height = '35';
var iframe = document.createElement('iframe');      
iframe.src = chrome.extension.getURL('toolbar1.html');
document.documentElement.appendChild(iframe);
}
});

toolbar1.html
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>  
<script type="text/javascript" src="test.js"></script>
</head>
<body>
    <input type="text" name="value" id="value" value=""/>       
    <button id="p_button" style="float:right;line-height:15px;margin-top:-1px;font-family:century gothic;">Click ME</button>
</body>

test.js:
document.addEventListener('DOMContentLoaded', function () {
var p_status = document.querySelector('#p_button');
if(p_status ){  
    p_status.addEventListener('click', p_open);
}
});
function p_open(e) {
 window.open("http://wwww.mysite.com?send_id=id");
}

In content.js i am getting id from background.js. this id should be the value for my button(Click ME+ id). 
Also I want to use to this id in my button click function(p_open()). 
Is it possible to do something like this?
How can i do this? please help!! Thanks in advance
