Google Chrome Plugins and Themes

Hello everyone,

I'm still struggling with Chrome's extensions.
Right now i'm trying to create an extension that would use a config.xml located in your "load-extension" folder.

I tried using the usual Chrome javascript syntax for loading xml files

Code:

var xmlhttp = new window.XMLHttpRequest();
xmlhttp.open("GET",path,false);
xmlhttp.send(null);
xmlDoc = xmlhttp.responseXML.documentElement;

The path variable here is
"chrome-extension://aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa1/config.xml"

Where aaaaaaaa[...]aa1 is my extension ID.
I can access config.xml through the browser.. however the XMLHttpRequest doesn't seem to be able to find it.

Whenever I try this code, I get a NETWORK_ERR : XMLHttpRequest error 101.

I was wondering if anyone got something similar to work.

If not, is there any known way to offer some sort of cheap configuration for your extensions ?
