    I strongly recommend reading about content scripts and message passing as the solution involves the combination of these 2 techniques.

    I could do a quick solution for you using these techniques but you’d probably fall in to a pitfall later on because you didn’t study these pages. However, I will give you a basic example flow;

    It’s a lot simpler than it may first appear.
