To simplify the scenario, lets say I’m working on an extension that just contains: alert("Hello")
whenever you load a page in example.com. Relevant manifest.json part:
"content_scripts":
[
{
"matches": ["*://*.example.com/*"],
"js": ["script.js"]
}
]
When I first visit the website, it works fine. But the problem is some of the links in the website don’t reload the page, they just manipulate the DOM. So a link for example will take you to example.com/foo, the script doesn’t run. Even when I return to the home page, it doesn’t run again, and all the edits that were made the first time are removed.
How do I make the add-on recognize that the page has changed, and rerun the script?
