Hi,

   I am making a web extension for Firefox. I am stuck in a problem on popup that will show user if extension is enable or disable.

It will automatically enable or disable by matching the users current tab URL.

Here is the js code:

chrome.tabs.query({currentWindow: true, active: true}, function(tabs){

   var url = tabs[0].url;

})

var domain = url;

var url = domain;

   if( url.indexOf('https://') >=0){
    


   //find & remove protocol (http, ftp, etc.) and get domain
   if (url.indexOf("://") > -1) {
       domain = url.split('/')[2];
   }
   else {
       domain = url.split('/')[0];
   }
   //find & remove port number
   domain = domain.split(':')[0];

//this removes the anchor at the end, if there is one url = url.substring(0, (url.indexOf("#") == -1) ? url.length : url.indexOf("#")); //this removes the query after the file name, if there is one url = url.substring(0, (url.indexOf("?") == -1) ? url.length : url.indexOf("?")); //this removes everything before the last slash in the path url = url.substring(url.lastIndexOf("/") + 1, url.length);


   if (domain == "www.youtube.com") {
       
   if (url == "watch") {
content.document.getElementById("main").innerHTML = '
Enabled
'; //var main_de = '
Enabled
';
   } else {
content.document.getElementById("main").innerHTML = '
Disabled
'; //var main_de = '
Disabled
';
   }
   } else {
content.document.getElementById("main").innerHTML = '
Disabled
'; //var main_de = '
Disabled
';
   }

} else{

content.document.getElementById("main").innerHTML = '
Disabled
';

}
