Question

How would I go about including the jQuery library in my Google Chrome Content Script? I have tried, fruitlessly, of course. Should I use <script src="..." /></script>, or is there a different/better way to go about it? Thanks in advance!

You need to load it in your manifest.json, like this:

  "content_scripts": [
    {
      "matches": ["http://*/*","https://*/*"],
      "js": ["jquery-1.4.2.js", "extension.js"]
    }
  ]
