I am trying to edit text using js in a Chrome extension using designmode not working. It works in the console but here is there any additional change I need to make to make this work for the Chrome extension
all the code below - manifest.json --
{
"manifest_version" : 2,
"name" : "changer",
"version" : "1.0",
"description" : "chnage it",
"icons" : {
"128" : "icon_128.png",
"16" : "icon.png"
},
"browser_action" : {
"default_icon" : "icon.png",
"default_popup" : "popup.html"
},
"content_security_policy": "script-src 'self' 'unsafe-eval'; object-src 'self'"
}
js code -
document.getElementById("btn").addEventListener("click", change);
document.getElementById("btnclose").addEventListener("click", close);
function change (){
document.designMode = 'on'
}
function close (){
document.designMode = 'off'
}
html -
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<meta charset="UTF-8">
<meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=edge">
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0">

<button id="btn">Turn ON</button>
<button id="btnclose">Turn OFF</button>
</div>
</div>
</body>
<script src="script.js"></script>
</html>
