I\'m trying to make a popup interface for a chrome extension. I can\'t seem to send a message from the popup.html/popup.js to the content.js script. Here\'s what I have so far.

The answer from 2105 still works on chrome version 88.0.4324.104. I just tested this. One thing I would update is instead of

alert("started"); in the content.js use console.log("started");

You have your proof (Hit F12, console tab) that it worked which persists for you and you can verify the x number of clicks produces x number of "started" log entries.

Make sure you reload the target page when you "Load Unpacked" each time, that had me stuck for a moment.

my manifest.json looks like this:
```
{
"name":"Chr Ext",
"description":"blah blah",
"version":"2",
"minimum_chrome_version": "46",
"manifest_version":2,
  "content_scripts": [
  {
    "matches": [
      "<all_urls>"
    ],
    "js": ["content.js"]
  }],
    "permissions": [
        "tabs"
    ],
    "browser_action": {
        "default_popup": "popup.html"
    }
}
```

I modified your popup.js and used DOMContentLoaded as Chrome extension suggested like:

popup.js:

 function popup() {
    chrome.tabs.query({currentWindow: true, active: true}, function (tabs){
    var activeTab = tabs[0];
    chrome.tabs.sendMessage(activeTab.id, {"message": "start"});
   });
}

document.addEventListener("DOMContentLoaded", function() {
  document.getElementById("button1").addEventListener("click", popup);
});

content.js:

chrome.runtime.onMessage.addListener(
      function(request, sender, sendResponse) {
        if( request.message === "start" ) {
         start();
             }
      }
    );

    function start(){
        alert("started");
    }

popup.html:

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head></head>
<script src="popup.js"></script>
<body>
<input id="button1" type=button value=clickme>
</body></html>

I've tested on my end it works.
