first report

this week my aim was about to learn the js so i try to learn the usage of how to retrive the url,how to move to a opened tab, how to access history,and some more features of js i think it will be taking another week to get hold on js mean while my project is struct at how to implement the input box i also mailed my mentor after 2 days search on internet i want the input box to be always present but in chrome as known to me no such options have been avaible when once decide on the design of the input box there will be a move in the project mean while i also should learn the design of the chrome extensions which i learnt during first report

The things i learnt are :
1. Chrome extension has two parts a.manifest file(a coordination file)
b.background.html (which contains our main js code)
2. i also saw some sample extensions
3. i learnt some js


ps: the first week i didn't learn a lot because of my brothers jee result decleration

OUTLINE OF PROJECT

the aim of the project is to create extension that moves from one tab to other depending on the letters pressed now the main idea is first there will be an icon then on pressing that icon a input box will appear then the box will take a word and when you press enter the chrome will take you to that tab whose url will be containing the word first this the basic thing


i think in java script there are objects which retrives url from we can search that word in the urls i am thing of way how to keep the input box there only while it moves to a tab if there is no word in all tabs then it will show some error message in the input box only i am thinking how to retrive the heading of the tab because it will be more meaningful to search the heading than url
