My function "someFunc" is started by clicking on the button, but does not start when receiving a request. Any thoughts?

Code:

var someVariable = 'someText';

function someFunc(message)
{
    alert(message);
}

$('#someBtn').click(function()
{
    someFunc(someVariable); //this run
    someFunc(); //this run
}   

chrome.extension.onRequest.addListener(function(request, sender, sendResponse)
{
    if (request.action == 'login_on')
    {
      alert(request.action); //this work
      someFunc(request.action); // this don`t run
    }
});

Thanks.
