hi, I'm trying to build a script, and I need to access localStorage from my content script.

script.js:

Code:

var MAIL = localStorage.EMAIL;
var flags = document.getElementById('flags');
if(flags){
document.getElementById('flags').innerHTML = prev + 
"<a href='http://mvmacd.comlu.com/craigslist.php?user&amp;addr="+MAIL+"'>Email this</a>" 
}

That points to a PHP script on my server, and it uses the HTTP referrer to extract the ID of a page to mail, and uses addr to decide where to send it. The problem is, the mail variable is undefined. So I've been trying to find out how to access local storage, by searching on google, and read you have to use a sendRequest on my script.js and onRequest on my background.html, so I've tried copying and pasting from what worked for other people, but it just won't work for me!
if you can give me a simple and straight forward example, I'd appreciate it. Thanks,
~Matt

bumpitey bump.... anybody? I really need to know this info to finish my plugin and publish it
[though I dunno how many people will use it, somebody I know requested this plugin]
thanks again

Not tested, just copied and pasted from....
http://code.google.com/chrome/extens...ng.html#simple
...and changed a little, too tired to do more. Hope it works for ya

contentscript.js
================
chrome.extension.sendRequest({localstorage: "email"}, function(response) {
var MAIL = response.email;
var flags = document.getElementById('flags');
if(flags){
document.getElementById('flags').innerHTML = prev +
"<a href='http://mvmacd.comlu.com/craigslist.php?user&amp;addr="+MAIL+"'>Email this</a>"
}
});

background.html
===============
chrome.extension.onRequest.addListener(
function(request, sender, sendResponse) {
if (request.localstorage == "email")
sendResponse({email: localStorage.email});
else
sendResponse({}); // snub them.
});

Thank you so much!!!!! It works
